What is the best way to get some weight transfer at the track??? I've seen some Dak's on this site that really "hunch" down when launching. Just wonder how it is there getting that done. I don't see mine doing that on any of my video's at the track. Is it just a matter of shock's??? I'm running nittro drop shock's currently.

Don't tell anyone, but.....


I put some bricks in the back.

And I leave it in 4WD.

Soft springs, 4 bar suspension, coil overs, with 90/10 drag shocks. Great for the track, terrible for the street

Actually hunching down don't mean your gonna hook good. On my 93 I had the rear springs rearched at a local spring company and they also added an extra leaf which stiffened them up. It made it hook much better. And it rode and handled a little better. I plan on doing the same to my 02 as soon as it's out of warranty.
