      it can get more forward drive, because of the increased indexing and lower roll steer. it takes away LR drive angle though, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

        Lowering your rr lower on the frame will add side bite to the car and decrease dynamic rear steer and drive angle of rr tire(tighter overall), if the added sidebite gets the car to scotch the rr, and roll the left rear up, you will have more forward drive because of the increased lr drive angle when you get back on the gas.



        I think you probably lost drop/travel @ the lr by using the 4th hole(reason why I say don't use it), and added more steer with the increased upper bar angle.
        So you took drive angle/dynamic wedge from LR (forward bite) away with the loss of travel and may have added steer (depending if car was rolled up) so you were looser also.....probably the case and that's why it sucked!

        A car on the hook HAS to have side bite/body roll to have GOOD forward drive on a slick track!!

        (An easy check of this is to move the lr upper from 3rd to 4th hole and see if your drop decreases)

        as a note.... you may find some Noticeable gains in forward drive with less rebound in your RF shock and possibly more lr spring
