Uhmmm.
Weight transfer to rear wheels is cut short early on with front end limiters. The Teeter Todder effect. Effective Leverage is changed. Dragsters pulling Wheelies is amazing. Effective leverage is tremendous to overcome. Antisquat must be present for both. Dead Hookup. |

Jack I put the shocks and limiters in. I measured the wheels there was 4" of travel. Now with the limiters in there is 2" of travel.

I made my first pass this last weekend that was pretty good (1.30-60'). The next 2 it spun some and lost about .06 in 60'. I loosened the limiters all the way and loosened the shocks 2 clicks. It picked up .03 the next pass to 1.33 and the next one wheelied pretty good and picked up to 1.29. My car is probably like yours, it has to have the front end in the air for best 60'. It's just a balancing act not to let it get too high.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
