Going from a 175 to a 200 should loosen the car and keep the lf more on the race track correct? Or should I move lead lower? Track is a semi banked 1/4 mile most nights dusty dry. Have 70 pounds above the rear end in 40 and 30 pound chunks. Lr is ahead and a 200. Fronts are 550 and 650 lf. Metric car on nova lowers. Thanks..

Yes, it will loosen car on the gas, but tighten it off the gas. It will help to keep the lf more on the ground.

Ok. Also what bite numbers and rear % are common on a 3 link car? J bar and progressive pull bar if that matters

Its been a few years, but on our dirt works, on Hoosier D40's, we ran 54-56% rear and 125lbs bite.We ran a lot on a paper clip track, with 12" trailing arms and short straight panhard bar.

We run 58% rear with 130# bite on our 3 bar car on a dry slick 3/8 paper clip. I like running the spring on top on the right rear more than anything. Car has the best side bite like That.

Im on imca g 60 with a 17 j bar 15 lowers and a 20 inch pull bar mounted 3 inchs ahead of center line. Went to soft on rf so gonna stick with 650 and 600 rf. Rr bar had 17* in it tryin to get it to turn thats also why I went softer on rf.
