another first time at the track topic

Post by stang67fb »

well finally the track opened up again down in SAC so out of 3 years i finally get to run my car. every time i tried to take my damn stang it would break down somehow... i think it was trying to tell me something, anyhow i got three runs in. first run was my best at a 15.4 with a 2.2 60ft and 88mph trap on all weather tires, then i got a 15.6 and then a 15.5. now this is with the klze and everything else in my sig BUT the car feels like its got maybe 150hp cause the clutch and tranny are bad. also i got my brother to go with his h22 powered del sol running on 3cyls we think, he hit a 15.0, 15.2 and 15.4. still i cant wait to go again next week and hopefully hit something a little faster.

there not the spring rates are way too high for the tokicos so it feels like im riding on blown struts. i actually got a rear set of Ground controls for free right now that i got on it and DAMN it rides so much smoother with them on. i will be getting a whole set once i get back from vegas....**** DZ coils they suck.

while personally i dont know quality of dz's, assuming they go through the same quality testing as other products, if you had struts valved matched to the 450/350 dz rates you wouldnt be complaining about crappy dz springs. gc are 350/250 standard rate, that is why your tokicos dont feel as "dead" as you called it or underdampened.
