Nothing fancy...some poly bushings, leaf spring clamps, play a *lot* with tire pressure (most folks find 40+ psi works best, but not always), pinion angle is important, and most folks have their engine set up to kill a lot of the bottom end...oh, and PRACTICE!

Hey Rob,Great light and awesome time. Looks like you guys were tearing up the track.Good air and a track that hooks means low E.T's.11.75 driver and machine were both on their game.Congrats.
Always a great show to witness.As said before,if you have never been to one you don't have a clue as to what you are missing.Get out and watch these drivers and cars put on a show.
