Sharif-do you happen to have the toe settings on your rear alignment? Remember we discussed this as to why my car was loose at speed (only on slicks), you told me about how you had toe'd in (IIRC) the rear and it helped tremendously...

For drag racing, and straight line stability, I would use rear 1/8th inch toe in. Grip will improve dramatically in a straight line, at the expense of slightly slower steering, and less of a tendancy to oversteer. It's always a trade-off.

Nice run Alberto - I may have missed it, but were you running skinnies up front?

i think he was running normal tires which contributed to the stability problems IIRC

No-only thing I changed on the set-up was the rear wheel/tire combo, as you could see in the vid

LMAO - you're crazy, no wonder why you were all over the place! Get some skinnies up front and you'll definitely be in the 10's!
