<div dir=ltr>Just for the record, when the car is neutral you then need to try going a little faster into each corner to make the car come unstuck at one end or the other, then you can start over tuning to get it back to neutral and make the car a lot quicker. </div>

<BLOCKQUOTE style="BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; PADDING-LEFT: 1ex" class=gmail_quote>Kas mentioned that we needed a higher spring rate at the rear.<br>
<br>
Reviewing pictures certainly seems to confirm that.<br>
<br>
What's the FOT experience.<br>
<br>
We are looking at going to a spring shop, adding a leaf, and re-arching.<br>
<br>
The car is very neutral with the current suspension. We are supposing that making some changes at the front will be required, too.<br>
<br>
All help and insights will be appreciated.<br>
<br>
Thank you...<br>
