    I think we will be deep in the 8s when we straighten out the suspension. We are running stiff bushings. We are going to replace them with aluminum solids. Means my street days are over probably but on the launch, the rear wheels are pinching forward and inward. Check this out. This was the 9.2 @ 154 run. As the car passes the camera which was at the 330 foot mark you can see the front tires are close to off the ground and still lifting/weight transferring. The slicks are pushed forward in the wheel well and you cannot tell it but they are pinched inward. Standing on the line, you can see the left front wheel for the whole 1/4 mile. The 9.2 pass was literally sideways from start to finish. You can see the wheels are trying to lift off all the way out to the 1/8 mile mark

    Front tires at 330 foot


    Rear Wheels at 330 foot


    Past 330 foot out to 1/4 mile

    Still have the OEM brakes and rotors. Running Lovell's struts with 90/10's, strut bearings, and supporting bushings/hardware.

    Some adjustable stunts would help a bunch. It is obviously too loose.

    Agree, however, for most of the run the front tires were barely contacting the track, contributing.
