Anyone who's into drag racing and HASN'T read Kevin's page is a fool!
Scott I may hit you up on the setup, first though I'm gonna try Wolfe's procedure and see what that nets me. Last year I didn't get enough passes to really get enough data. Fiddling with shock settings gained me 5 tenths though.

I went to that site about 5 years ago, still one of the best, especially for the Four Link guys, the section about shock travel was what made me realize the mistake I made buying the HEIDT'S front end instead of the ALSTON.

there really is some AWESOME info there. I was able to kep the left front down on the stock suspension in my olds with a couple tricks out of there. Bens digital frame machine helped alot too though as far as measuring my thrust angle and compensating for movement. Good stuff.
