ok chicky rac set up works for more then just a hard packed track.
trust me chicky spent the big part of last summer finding a dialed set up for him. and then i took his set up tweeked it to me but so close it not worth noteing the changes.

the fact is you can go racing and toss down the car and be close. with a front spring change or a sway bar.

1/2 a second a lao is huge at our track. Sometimes 1-6 qualifiers are have less than 3 seconds between them. Last week I lost TQ by .3 seconds.

Guys I think maybe I might have fixed my problem. I was checking my back shocks and found that I had 1 webbed bladder and the other 1 is stock. Is there anyway to make these two shocks work the same with two different bladders?
