I think everyone that watches the video can tell my car is a piece of sh!t.. I never claimed to be the best or better than than anyone else... I already explained that I didn't think the shock settings were correct. But that's where I ended up that day.. to go A to B.... [/quote]
Man, where you coming from? I don't think Monte was saying anything bad (Sh!t) about your car, all he said was that the owner knows that the car was far from working good and that is why you posted the video. Before you start pounding the keys on your keyboard, sit down and try to comprehend what people are trying to tell you.
Monte was trying to help.

Nobody said anything about your car being that. But you have posted several questions here, as well as putting up this video. Only trying to help you, based on what I see. If you would rather not have any more comments from me........I will gladly bow out, just say the word.
Trying to make a small tire leaf car 60ft hard is a tough job. You are doing fine, but there is definitely more there. In case you haven't noticed, I don't sugar coat things......LOL!!! Ask me what I see or think and I will tell you. I would rather hear things straight and that's the way I tend to give it. Some are not like that and I understand that as well. We are grown men, should be able to have a conversation and not take it personally..........because it's NOT personal. You don't know me, I don't know you. I didn't realize you were trying to help.🖒.. reading from your post and others here on this site have been a great help... thanks I'm going to make the move to the 275 Pro at the next race. I'm sure I will have many questions for you concerning that... I see a lot of the guys try to make the change at our local tracks.. and they are not successful.. I feel there may be a slight advantage to the tire and I want to make it work. I will probably a bunch of questions soon

Listen to the man.......(Monte is a good source of info, and when you don't listen, you find out later he was correct ...lol )
It does look like too hard of a hit. Might actually work with a radial, but is that shock good enough to keep it down ? After the hit
What shocks are those, and they have too much shaft showing , especially for a leaf spring car

I think your car is bad running cal tracs and leafs watched a couple of your videos and was wondering what trans are you running since you are leaving at around 5k I run a two speed glide 3000lb..I leave the starting line between 5 and 6000 RPM depending on the track conditions..

That was why I carried both in my car trailer, use what works best that day 
Don't quit or get mad, keep getting faster to make it harder for all the other racers to beat you
