I took the car down friday nite to atco after all the stuff i did to it over the winter, lowering the car 2 inches,new front tires,new 850 demon. the car still handles great, you guys think it would be all over the track but its not, dead straight all the way down till i let off,then it springs back straight and gets a little scary but other than that it drives better then my jeep. I do have to get rid of the demon though, I think my old holley is more consistant and faster.

I had a car do something simular once, under power it was straight as a string but let out of it and it was a hand full !
The problem turned out to be not enough positive caster which actually got worse when the front end settled down.
I had the front end realigned with more positive caster and it drove like a proveribal cadillac!
