The car was hooking, now it is not.

One of a few things are going on here.

The drag radials I run are toast ( 14 passes on them ).

I have a bad shock(s) because they are no way intended for what I am loading on them.

I have exceeded said shocks ability to work and need to upgrade. (most likely)

Some component in my suspension is out of whack ( control arm out of adjustment, etc.) and I am going to go looking for that this weekend.

I also might need to install the anti-roll bar I got from Wolfe but the car is tracking perfectly straight and a anti roll bar is typically used to correct this problem.


My suspension components are as follows.

Rear Suspension:

Factory 8.8 Rear End Housing

31 Spline Moser Axles with C-Clip Eliminators

SVO Center Girdle

Southside Machine Lower Control Arms

UPR Double Adjustable Upper Control Arms With Spherical Bushings.

Moroso Trick Springs

Self Modified Monroe GP Shocks



Front Suspension:

Factory Springs

Lakewood 90/10 Struts


The cars weighs 3300 with me in it.


All in all pretty basic and not a whole lot of trick stuff. I have been more than pleased with it and never thought it would get me in the 1.3's.. Might be time to step it up, if so, no problem.
