That will help
or pull the 1100 out and put an 800 there.
leave the lf alone

Hey stock car driver, I have a silly question for you. I run soft front springs and believe in it, IE 800 RF and 900 LF. I have for quite some time run 16" LR and a 13 " RR. What is your thought about running a stiifer 13" on the LR and a touch softer RR then my normal 13" RR 225, but in a 15" version? I'd like your thoughts about what you think the car would do dynamically?

OK, thanks for your comments. My thought was, for a larger track, I.E. 3/8 and bigger that carry lots of momentum, that the theroy might be something the same as the LR soft spring. As you would enter the corner, and the longer spring would compress and build stored energy that it would help tighten the car up in and thru, and then help transfer weight back to the LR faster. Just thinking out of the box and was wondering it it would have any chance.
