[QUOTE="Fenixfire, post: 10107969, member: 37891"] I should have mentioned that when I rebuild the rear ill be taking the 4.10s out and stepping down to 3.73s. The 4.10s came with the car. Yes, I need less gear. Ya this is why Im doing my research BEFORE buying anything. I want to make sure I get it right. Ive been trying to find a good suspension expert I can talk to about setting it up properly for road racing. I have been on a road course before, but never with proper suspension and tires. The mach 1s handle decently out of the box, especially for an sra car, but I know there is a BIG difference with proper suspension. I know how to set up a car for drag racing, but obviously my knowledge is extremely limited in how to set it up for road racing. Ive been to corner carvers but those guys are not very good at accepting new people trying to learn the intricacies of the sport. As far as drag racing goes....I still have friends that would like to hit the strip on a weekend and I have a hard time just sitting and watching without making a couple passes in my car. Thats really about all it would be though. I know you cant set a car up to do both well and thats fine with me. Id rather it be a road racing machine anyway. Ill do more searching and stuff. I was just hoping I could find someone that has been down this road with this platform and(as you said) can tell me whats good to do vs what isnt. [/QUOTE]
