Full Road Race Suspension Solution

For those that want to race the 4th Gen F Body to it fullest potential, Cortex Racing, the makers of my ITE/American V8 Supercar front suspension setup now has the system in stock.

It was a new spindle, hub, lower control arm that bolted to stock geometry, weld in upper bracketry that allowed for stock car like upper control arms and a modified stock sway bar. I used my old racing shock setup with it and in 30 minutes of rag tag testing beat my fastest time at Sears Point by over 3 seconds a lap!

Corrected geometry and savings of 25 lbs of unsprung weight per corner helped as well. Give me a shout if you want more info.

It is sad that my car only lived for about 40 minutes before getting hit from behind and totalling the car with the system, but it was AMAZING!! Thanks.
