Well I did some testing yesterday-My findings
-With spring rates I found harder springs to be the key because with soft spring the car rubs on the ground even with a fairly high ride....I was able to a acheive a ride height of 4.5 in the front and 5 in the rear with almost no rub just to prove a point
-Also with harder spring you need less of a lb difference in springs to achieve the same grip ie I was using green and white which is a 4 lb difference and I found red and green to give the same grip with only a 2 lb difference
-Also having no sway bar on the rear can define "the edge" a bit better
Also I was finally able to beat a guy that hasn't been beaten at this track if he has finished the race in 29 races, it would not have been possible with out the Mi4......he is also a Shuie guy
Shuies dominate our track

One of the guys at my track who is 'the' fast guy to beat in Pro-stock now drives for Schumacher.
He used his car yesterday with it modified to take the Xray ECS driveshafts (he used to run the '009) and he said they made a huge difference, he fastest lap was a few hundreths quicker than the Mod guys!

New car got me..........looking through the remaining baggies for the motor screws!!
So far a really good build, love the chassis, new pulleys are nice and the cvd's are really smooth!
