    Buy one. Bob will tell you exactly what he does with Bobby's car and the other
    Manufactures won't do that. There is no magic in any race cars , but the BPRC has a pretty stiff chassis so they react to changes very well.

      we have to run hard tires in the mid west and the tracks get slick. plus I heard they are heavy. hooiser 55 tires. my driver weighs 185 lbs and can we get our weight distribution % . plus won,t a stiffer car be hard to hook up on a slick track..By the way we run 600 to 800 hp motors.

        A flexible race car doesn't respond to changes. When the track gets slick the set up becomes more
        Critical therefor the chassis beiing stiff is an asset. I also weight 185 and have no issues with weight or
        Percentages. The Bloomquist cars are some of the stiffest cars ever built and they seem to do
        Well in the slick. Pierce cars are known for having a lot of traction.

          You have a suspension to move and flex not the chassis.

                  The right front upper should be the same. The lowers are similar in length but I doubt they will bolt up and the steering arms are shorter , the king pin inclination is different , the height is different and I'm not sure about the king pin height. Using the wrong front end parts would be a nightmare .

                    Huck is right. Sell your S7 spindles and lowers. The Pierce frt end is better any ways.
