Just for the record, when the car is neutral you then need to try going a l=
ittle faster into each corner to make the car come unstuck at one end or th=
e other, then you can start over tuning to get it back to neutral and make =
the car a lot quicker.=20


Never be beaten by equipment.

Kas mentioned that we needed a higher spring rate at the rear.

Reviewing pictures certainly seems to confirm that.

What's the FOT experience.

We are looking at going to a spring shop, adding a leaf, and re-arching.

The car is very neutral with the current suspension. We are supposing that =
making some changes at the front will be required, too.

All help and insights will be appreciated.

Thank you...
