Default Re: Spin Control Question

You can get a fairly tall 12" tire to keep the RPM down for the 1/4. We run 10.0 at 129 or so with a 5.00 gear and a 9x30 Hoosier radial, even with the converter being too loose, we're at 7850 or so, and the radials do not grow.

I'd run the Del-A-Lum bushings, the Moog ball joints (long upper), and the Moog upper shafts with the big offset.

I think if you get the car set up right you can get a decent light on a .400 tree without deep staging. That car should go 1.28 in the 60', and when it does it'll leave hard enough to cut a light.
