I know what your saying. The car looks like it has leaf springs with caltracs.

Wouldnt it be better if the front end rose higher and put more weight to the rear. Where the rear end plants down not raises?

Wonder is the rear shocks are acting like 90/10's not 50/50's. Meaning it allows it to raise quickly and settle down slowly
