    Your other thread says it is different than a Smack down. How so?

      Was told by mastersbilt that mars moved a bunch of stuff around on my type of car. And that I needed to talk with mars. Called mars and they said they couldn't get me and paperwork/ setup information on the car.

        I know they shipped to Mars with some of the mounting points out of the car. But don't know all the details. No details from the previous owner?

          I think they was sent to Mars with no cross member and no 4-link mounts, but there could be other things as well. I don't remember dates but 2010 would likely be too late or one of the last masters by mars as they started building Mar's cars around that time. I guess it's possible they still did the masters by mars for a while after they started building the Mar's cars so......

          I'm just not sure of the exact time line on those cars but to me it's possible it's older or a mars car.

                  Yes. And spinning the rear tires bad. Even on restarts

                    Something not adding up here. Toting the LF is not accompanied by wheel spin.
                    New driver by chance?

                      No not a new driver. Car has 147lbs bite. Jbar is 9 1/2 up on frame bottom on pinion mount. LF 500, RF400, LR200, RR 250. 5th coil 325 spring. When ever I'd drive the car into the corner on the throttle it would dump on the RR , and couldn't get back on the throttle the way I needed to before it would spin out. On restarts car would kick out the RR and spin the rear tires

                        Does the car turn into the corner ok? 400# spring on the rf seems to heavy. If the rf is too heavy, and the car does not roll over on the rf and stay there through the middle of the corner, it is going to three wheel on exit. This sounds like a tight car that is not turning in very well.

                          All his springs are in range for a smack down car with a vanilla setup from that timeframe.
