His comment about "the hit" and too violent of a hit is the clue.
With some of the new converters that have a hard STR rate I see the same TOO MUCH HIT. Especially on some lighter cars.

The nice thing on our Plus Sized Cars is that we have real 4-link suspension.
The weakness are the attach points on the Frame.

For some reason when properly stripped they can get fairly light even with BB.

Will what was the lightest weight you got your car?

Dan
How much back-to-back converter testing have you actually done? Back-to-back during track rentals?

My fastest coverters also hit the hardest. My min weight is 3235.

If Charie Plott at ATI told me a pi** ant could pull a freight train, I would start figuring how to hook that little sucker up.
