[Fot] TR6 springs and "umph"

Hi Kas, need a translation of "umph".  I am assuming you mean a spring
stiffer than 600 pounds [as Tom Kreiger indicted]?

What Tom told me was that the rear end squats as power is applied in a
corner.  This causes the front to raise slightly producing under
steer.  By making the rear very stiff there is no squat and then the
car will over steer giving you the ability to steer with the throttle
coming out of corners =much faster.

Correct?

Chuck
