Do you have their respective setups? It would be interesting to know since both running oneway and solid front respectively on a same track irrespective that their driving styles differ.Anyway, I suspect both are running solid front looking the amount of caster clip settings.

Sorry but I can't help but laugh at this. Take all this with a pinch of salt.

and front aluminum sway bar holder. I have a sneaky suspicion that the wheelbase could be altered too.

A male and female? Hope you get more snakes. A tip !
Don't tell other people too much about the 710. Else, everybody starts to get better than you and you loose your position. (j/k)

the other reason is there is a minimum tire diameter rule and a minimum tire width rule. Trimming the tire to minimum diameter on the inside allows you to still be legal and run a narrower front tire.

setup from qualifying to final was a bit different. I think to adjust for tire wear mainly for the 1 hour finals.
Standard Roll Centers front and rear. Standard DRS position. 3.5 mm ride height. 42 shore tires superglued cut down to 57-58mm for qual. 3mm or 2.5mm rear roll bar set pretty stiff. Red Springs. shock and dampening I'll have to guess here, but most likely 40-45 weight oil.
Everything else would be guessing or speculating so I'd rather wait till Art Carbonell or brian berry publishes their nats setups. Yeah I sat right next to the snake team but I wasn't really involved in their setup discussions too much. What they were saying that the front solid on this track made the car feel more safer and comfortable for him to drive. Really though I don't think they were overcompensating for the front solid axle other than the rear differential and sway bar settings.
I do have to admit that the new Mega .12 engines performed quite admirably. I just couldn't figure out why they had set their bottom end setting on the engines so lean, but they sertainly pulled a lot of cars on the long strait and sweeper.

I see you have a long tubing with the external filter? Is that going into the carb or coming from the pipe?
