We have been from 380-800 lbs on base and 9.7/11.8/13.2 on the levers as we have tried to work through. From 3800-5000 on launch RPM. Front shocks on the loose end of rebound and the rear on the stiff end. Various combinations of the above.

You’ll never get there without DA shocks on all four corners. I fought it for years.

Those single adjustable shocks are WORTHLESS and even more WORTHLESS with a stick. You need to be able to control bump and rebound separate from each other.

I doubt you have a tire problem. The other issues is your traction bars. I’ve never seen a stick car that wanted the bar running up hill, jacking the *** of the car up like a stink bug.

Get the bars running downhill and get better shocks. You’ll never get there with this shocks and I don?t care who makes them half assed work.

They may have great customer service but they ain’t paying you to test and tune their substandard shocks.

It is what it is.
