    Hey Ricky. There are alot of guys on here that do things there way and it works well. I can tell you from experience that if you listen to Stock car driver , you will be fast.I know every driver is different , etc, but if you can drive at all, you will be fast if you listen to him and do what he tells you to do. Good luck with whatever you try.

      You want some static angle in right so when the body rolls it will be level with that being said you do not want it to go past level,angled down to the front during body roll

        I understand the theory in the matter and any link with angle down to the front wont have the drive a link with level or upward angle. give it a try u might like it.

          has anyone mentioned that if you could of seen the race you wouldnt have totaled that car out, rared up like that its no wonder,you cant see. four tires is allways faster than three. eight tires is even faster.

            Thanks for the information. Our season is over, but wanting to get ideas for next year. I'm usually fast and have won the track championship at my track and this year the worst I finished was 4th once and 5th once. The rest were top 3's, but I'm always wanting to get faster. We run open motors, except no roller cams, no aluminum heads or blocks, and no 400 blocks. Our engines put out about 550-600 hp, but we have to run Hoosier (Nascar) pull offs so it's hard to get them hooked up. Again, thanks for all the help and information.

              bars angled down in front promote tight rear steer ,I likethe way you made your ballast old valve covers come in handy

                You must have a really high ride height as I cant get my uppers to 0 degrees.
                My rear ride heights are 9" on rr and 8.5" on lr.
