I am presently adjusting the stance. Attention to the rear on those darn sloped driveways. Once I get a "rub", I will raise the rear slightly....... then optimize the front.

The tire specs. for the maximum size drag radial I could fit, with the adhesion characteristcs I wanted, are below.

Great site, some true experts with metal here.

PS: Just wanted to mention, DSE and Budnik were great to work with. Cannot go wrong with either.

Nice looking Firebird! Car looks like it will move down the track pretty quick.
