Re: Rear End Snubber Extensions for Drag Racing
Your on the absolute right track with the 'Snubber'. Anything a person can do to limit the 'Pro-Squat' built into these cars will help. I did something similar around 10 years ago on my Stingray, turned the car around, was the best thing I ever came up with. I ended up getting it to 60 foot in that configuration 1.325, best. Lots of 1.33's, 1.34's & 1.35's though, off the foot brake.

Re: Rear End Snubber Extensions for Drag Racing
Nice Job Phil! We need to get a WAZOO track day together. I must say that car looks pretty clean to have spent a day at the track
 Glad to see you didn't have any mishaps this time around.
