Hey Kevin just wanted to give you an update.
Car went 1.39 - 1.40 - 1.44 - 1.41 - 1.40 at the Fords @ Englishtown Race this fall.
Ran a new best of 10.41 @ 129.89 not to shabby for a pump gas HR cam N/A 347 combo @ 3000lbs.
Over the winter I plan on trying out some AFCO rear springs and running some race brakes up front and keep dialing the suspension in.

Thanks again for the great suspension.

Randy Seuss.

Kevin,
Got back out the the track today. I just put new tires on the car...(only thing I changed since last outing) they are M&H Racemaster 27x10's out back with a set of M&H fronts as well. First pass off the trailer on the new hides. I did a big burnout and I think I may have greased em. I had them at 11.5 psi cold, 6000 rpm on the 2 step, 7200 shift points, car goes 11.02 @ 125 with a 1.58 short. After a quick phone call I dropped the psi to 9-3/4 lbs, I bumped the 2 step to 6200 rpm and left the shift points alone. This time I barely had any burnout at all as recomended car goes 10.82 @ 124 with a 1.47 short.
I decided to bump the 2 step to 6400 rpm and left the tire psi alone. I was also moving shift points up to 7350 car left hard 1.43 short. I missed 3rd and coasted thru.
Rain ended the day before I could make another pass. I have some strange adjustable rear shocks on the way, so maybe it'll 60ft even better?

Kevin,
Made it to the track, first full test on this car's new setup.
The car's first pass responded with a 1.61 with a 11.17 @ 123 leaving at 5500 rpm with 10psi in the 26's.
I bumped the 2-step to 6000 rpm and raised the pressure to 11psi, and it responded with a 1.51 going 11.07 @ again 123mph.Your suspension works great. I'm in the process of putting a real tire on the car and cutting some low 1.4's. The car seems to spin the 26's no matter what I tried and 2 other freinds also said the car felt like it was spinning when they drove it. Goal for now: Mid to low 1.4's & anywhere in the 10's N/A, then I'll add a plate system.

Thanks again, your suspension works!!!
Randy.
