I've been meaning to post this for some time but keep forgetting. I've done a lot of searching on DSMtalk and others but have been finding mainly info on FWD or autocross set-ups.
What the consensus on the best suspension settings for drag racing. Obviously maximizing contact patch as far as camber, etc. But what about stiffness? As stiff as possible all the way around? Or some slack up front to minimize rebound after the initial backwards weight transfer shifts forwards again? I know the general comment is, "it's awd, it doesn't matter." But I'm not so sure there isn't a healthy amount of time to be shaved off from proper suspension work. It seems to pay dividends with the FWD and RWD guys, why not us? -------------------- |
