First you need a fast car to know how to make it faster. So you people need to quit making a fool or your self and get a faster car, better yet i dont know how you guys make it paying other people to do all your work for you, how can you know how to do things if youve never experienced it your self, PERIOD

and whos stupid enough to believe that the front shocks dont play a role in weight transfer, get off the forums and go a freakin dragstrip and learn something before you come back, oh im sorry, if your car was fast enough youd know better by now anyways.

do your research dumb a$$

I have forgot more about building a drag car than are boyee here even knows...
front shocks plays a small amt on wieght transfer.....in your internet learning of car..you should know other things like,engine ht and setback play a huge roll as does weight of the front end also the rear needs to match to realize efforts done to the frontend

hey dude chill out a lil here, man a lot of us here do all the work on are cars. im shure that people like quik and vfast know a lot more than you, im shure what ever you did to get a better weight transfer helped but dont be calling people stupid becuase if it was me i would not be drilling wholes in my shocks or taking them off completly. oh vfast the 24lb injectors are working good so far. it runs better to thanks for the help. also like quik said you do not want to be unloading the rear tires thats going to make you spin and you will be going slower, or out of control.
