I am going to fiddle with my stance a bit on mine and was wondering what others numbers are compared to mine. Mine measures 24" front and 25.5". This is the lowest point in the center of the wheel well/lip to the ground. If you have pics please post them!!!

Thats the front, but be carefull at that height. I roadrace this car and am running 800 lb front springs. If you want to sacrafice your street driving give it a shot. I have also installed 1/2" drop solid body mounts which pretty much put the body of the car on top of the frame rails. I also run a 5.5" backspace due to rim being 9.5" wide and running a 275 40 tire. Running a tire that big is not possible without cutting portions of your wheel well out.

I wish I could go and at least watch. My car is not ready for any track use due to the stock brakes. Hopefully will get an upgrade this year!

good luck with getting brakes, I'm using a Baer Track/Touring set up, installed in 2002. Cost me $2000 back then for the whole nine yards including master cylinder and proportioning valve, I'm actually pretty impressed with it, I agree tho, brakes are a biggee.
