Today at the track, with my new Hoosier A6's, I was lifting the inside front tire. I had installed 180 lb springs, took off the rear sway bar and tightened up the front 19mm Tarrett just a little. Everyone at the track told me that I needed beefier springs in the back. Well, I have 220 lbs springs, shall I try them? Shall I leave the sway bar off? Should I soften or tighten the front sway bar? Oh, I am running 205/15 on 5.5 rims. I am looking at 7" rims to get the patch better. Any other recommendations?

Which end of the car would you like to have more grip?

Which end of the car would you like to have more grip? The rear, I guess, since right now there is only one wheel on the ground in the front. So was the car loose in front, i.e., understeering? Or loose in the back, i.e., oversteering? |
