Storm-
The car doesn't push at all. The setup is basically one I got from our track owner, a Speedmerchant driver. The carpet we race on has been rolled up over the summer and has some wierd bite. everyone with a side spring car has had problems with traction rolls (traction hooking, really) and this setup helps. One thing I did not mention that really helps is radically rounding off the corners of the front tires (q-balls, as it was put). We now have a new term at our track: "did you Q-ball your fronts?"
