caltrac setup chart?
I swear once upon a time someone posted a chart on caltrac setups, any idea where it went?
I'm told I'm getting air under the slicks when I launch (stick car)

Re: caltrac setup chart?
Tom - I'm convinced that nearly all problems are connected to shock quality rather than bar settings. Got a lot of body separation at launch? Chances are good that the rear shocks are topping out unloading everything. A side video as well as under car will show a lot of action missed by the eye. I have tried all the springs from stock mono's to Landrum's and Calvert split-leafs and it made no difference in our car. Note the second video was a 1.47 60' even with a motor seriously down on hp. (Never used any pre-load of the bars)
(Viking shocks) (Calvert shocks)

I was thinking 1st gen Camaros were a stud on both ends rather than a stud on top and a thru bolt on the bottom (I could be wrong)
