    You're gonna have to say more than "were horrible". What is the car doing? What tires are you running?

    With the last setup which was a 300rr 225lr we were bad on a tacky track and worse come feature time this is our best so far when it hits dry slick we cant do anything though if it just dries out some were still pretty good

    Put the 250 in the lr, and the 175 on the rr or a 200

    I'm sure everyone will agree u need the stiffer spring on the lr. just swap the rear springs, reset ride heights and bite

    I'd suggest raising any ballast you have higher in the car, if you can.

    Default dry slick track help

    Post the wheel weights & the wheel offsets. If the wheels does not
    line up front to rear tell which one or ones sets out more than the other.

    I have been experimenting with air pressures this year and the higher air pressures are working better for me!
