I posted a similar video to this last year, different tires and the front end is a little lighter now. 4th round yesterday, leaving at 2700 off the foot brake. 1.441 60 foot, ran 10.465. http://youtu.be/qTw48XnIJrQIt appears the tires need a little bit more air, the track was green early (first race of the year) and it seemed to hook best at 12.6#. I'll creep up on it next time I have the car out and see if there is any improvement.

I like how the front end doesn't bounce down when it lands, then back up. Does look like more air in the rears would drop the 60' even more.
What shocks do you use on the front?
Yeah, it's got a smallblock.

why is it setting so high in the rear? i would lower that. but it di look good.
I've been meaning to lower it. Because its footbraked the suspension is loaded but I'd still like it lower.

I'm hoping so. There is a small bounce, but not bad. Strange Single Adjustable

Have you tried a couple turns more preload on the Caltracs? Just a suggestion, im no expert at all. Also the slicks do seem to be wadding up just a tad.
Mopar to the bone!!!
