I have an 06 Rocket blue front. I have the Rocket book for my car, but just wondering if I need to change my setup based on what the book calls for. Is the book geared more for a super or can I use it to set it up directly for my 604 crate? What I'm finding is that I'm really tight early in the night when its tacky and lots of traction. As the night goes on, my car gets better... but I would like to free it up some more so I don't kill my momentum in the corners, especially for qualifying.
This is what I have on mine right now...
Springs
-LF (500) RF (350)
-LR (250) RR (225)
-5th (350)
Weight
- 2310lbs (total)
- 54.2% (left)
- 54.9% (rear)
- 106lbs (bite)
Ride Heights
- spec with Rocket book
I've got my RR top rod as high as it'll go. LR top rod 2nd from bottom. LR lower in 3rd from bottom and RR lower 2nd from bottom. J-bar rake about 7 1/2". Just wondering if I need to get closer to the spring rates that rocket calls for rather than what I have. I want to pin the RF nose down and pivot it, but it seems that I have a bad throttle push when it's tacky. Here's some of the things I plan to try to loosen the car up...
Raise both LR and RR lower rods up 1 hole.
Take out a little wedge.
Softer LR spring (225 or 200)
Softer RF spring (325)
Less J-bar angle.
Add more rear steer.
Index LR birdcage down 1/2".
Thoughts?
