Just the opposite. I’d suggest going up to a minimum of 300lbs. All of my strange oversteer issues went away then. I may move up to 400lb or higher. What are you running up front?


23mm bars. I still have a rear sway bar. Thought about disconnecting it for a stint.

Oh yeah. You are setup way to soft in the rear. I have a set of 275s you can have for cheap, but I think you want no bar and 300lbs or more.

I was looking at my invoice for Elephant racing and trying to figure this out. My springs are 10x2.5 and it looks like the max spring option is 300lbs.
The 9x2.25 goes all the way up to 800lbs.
I'm going to call Chuck today and see what up.
May be interested in your springs if they fit my car Lets me see what chuck says.

I run a 8"x2.5" (Eibach) on my car. Any choice you want in spring rate there... The 2.25" springs while lighter, require a specific collar at the least.

That's why the race cars use hold down clips !
