Ok guys, here at the track with foams and having a problem. The car is hopping the rear end a bit from the middle out, costing me some exit speed. I am using 80wt front, 60 wt 60 wt rear oil with ae copper fronts and 20.91lb rear springs. I am thinking about giving the car more negative camber and possibly dropping the rear spring down 1 rate. any ideas?
Your oil is WAY to heavy for the springs being used (heavy spring is ok, but not oil) You should never have to go more than 50 or 60wt in the front! Here is a quick story....One day some guy told Paul Lemieux his oil was to light for carpet/foam. So Paul poured out all the oil from his shocks and then layed down some of his fastest laps of the day
