Has anyone tried running soft rear springs on a stop and go track, that gets slick, to gain forward traction? I'm thinking 200lr and 175rr or are these just to soft for a late model?

That's softer than we have ever been. We like 225s across the rear. Sometimes we will throw a 200 on either side or a 250 on the lr to adjust to the conditions.

I have been as low as 175 and 150 on a 4 link late model. You better have the right panhard setup to try that. If you are looking for the back to squat to induce traction, that just isn't how a 4 link works. I wouldn't recommend it.
