dry slick

250lb driver - 55% left 53% rear

53% rear ain't gonna get the power down well in a superlate on a slick track, unless its a truelly a momentum track or you have a 12" wing.... and you'd still be lacking.

So are me and Dirt 69 wasting time. I moved mine in at top and bottom and stiffened 25#?

Not necessarily. That is a way to promote roll and give the car some more lateral grip.

Wow, that did not work for me. Moving that spring in and only going up 25# made it loose. Going to move it back out. Had a 250 RR with it out. Went up to a 275 and moved it in.

try it with out goin up in spring if your loose on gas then that is because of the stiff spring

Loose getting in off gas, Way bad loose.

You may have to take out some roll steer too in combination; it's gonna roll over more/easier with spring angled in, so you'll be into roll steer quicker which will loosen it.

I misread your post. I thought you angled it, not moved both top and bottom.

Try 550lf 375rf, stack 200/400 lr 225rr with 90 pounds bite w/o driver in car 52.5 to 53.5 left side, 54.5 to 55.0 rear

I have 2006 blue Rocket, 550LF 375Rf 200LR 250RR 130lbs bite[/QUOTE]

I know in the slick you need a good balanced car. On a small 1/4 track on my Rocket I sometimes run a 600lb LF spring if we start near the front also add a little more drop from 13 1/4 to 13 1/2. Its a little erratic but being up front you got more track to use. I have also put like a plain 3 or 4 on the LRF seems to slow the birdcage enough to tighten up the car. The biggest thing I've found out is always try little stuff in the final hot laps if you unload with a good car.

Learn how to tune with tire temps! When its dry slick you have to think a bit more inline with a asphalt type set up.
