Problem cutting a light

Front end travel is usually a very big amount of change in RT.....

It is in a first generation F-Body....and more than a tenth is up there in those cars.

Maybe not as much in a later model with coil over type front end....

The problem is always limiting travel at some point will hurt weight transfer and traction....

Shorter front tires.....less front end travel....raise your starting line rpm as much as possible......

What do you want good RT's or the fastest ET's....One does not go with the other in a car like this......that's why people deep staged.....Speeds up RT's but kills ET's....
