Droop check

[84wedge]

You know how they jack the rear of the car only and then check? What if the entire car was lifted by one of those devices teams use in the pits to get the whole car off the ground. Would that change the measurement by getting all the tires off the ground rather than putting the cars weight on the front shocks?

yes, it would change what your car measured

Would it be safe to say getting the front suspension out of the equation would give a more accurate droop measurement?

No, if you know what your doing and pretty much all teams do now. you can get 2"+ more deck by doing one simple thing but it will mess with your set up and you have to work to find your balance again.

Front doesn't really play that big a part unless your really cutting it close on the measurement.

What’s the one thing? From just general observations Most all the longhorns winning races have similar deck heights (relatively low on LR) and then the fast rockets have extremely high deck heights
