    Birdcage posted a very well thought out post on another forum about this very subject..... but one of his thoughts was to run a couple of practice sessions with the idle turned up fairly high on the motor......

    Another guy suggested running a practice session and never touching the brake pedal..... start slow , keep getting faster and faster through the corners with no brakes...

    A driver told me earlier this year when we were talking about this subject, that when he first got into a four bar car, he keep driving like a big old dirt stock car... you know, gas it in hard, punch the brake and back it in sideways.... He said his Dad finally got tired of that after a few nights, so the Dad took a hammer and beat both brake lines closed on the rear and made him learn to drive it like that.... taught him how to drive a 4 bar car that way.....

    All say it takes years of practice to master.... you just don't get it in a week or two....
    " Most of my drivers have been new to 4 link stuff and I believe most of their chassis issues are really my driver issues....... "

    see ya

      A good shock package will help keep it loaded up on the bars also.
