Hey parts removers...
Has anyone put some skinnies on the front of the R/T and seen an ET
improvement? I was going to see if sam would bring his extra set of
Inslicktas to the track to try out... With stock alignment settings the R/T
pushes a lot of rubber in the front. Also, what about disconnecting the A
Arm links to the front sway bar... Normally I dont go in for this kind of
thing but Im desperate to see a 14... a 14.9 would be great!

When I removed the tailgate and the spare at Moroso last fall , I could not
hook up . When I did , my best run was 15.3 , but usually I spun for a
while . I think the idea of lowering just the back and transferring the
weight is a good one though .
