interesting setup. did you go with -2 droop in order to gain some traction in the rear?

dj apolaro

The front soft sway bar is an option part. Look online at any of the stores that carry serpent.

-2 droop was not done for rear traction. It was more for the bumps.

Garaski

Does your setup revolve around how much droop you want to have on the car ? When do you measure droop ?

dj apolaro

Not sure if I understand the question, but I measure droop on the blocks. As far as the droop in relation to the set up, the set up of the entire car is a give and take. I normally do not use that much droop, but found it worked at the nationals for the bumps. Since I was using a hard front spring if helped soak up some of the bounce in the car. Hope this helps. I think I confused myself. haha
