Launching a Drag or Street Car!

Hey, Everyone

I found this site looking around, the site specializes and has suspension parts for Mustangs, but it's got very good general information about suspension settings for all vehicles that I'm sure everyone can use, for the strip or the street, it's has some graphs also  http://www.baselinesuspensions.com/info/Launching_A_Drag_Car.htm


Here's the home page  http://www.baselinesuspensions.com/

Cool info !!

It's really a good read and you will gain a better understanding of how the car suspension plays a major role in aiding traction, all the Hp in the world is no good is you can't put it to the pavement, if you read this information a couple of times and put the examples given in perspective with your cars suspension you definatley will have a better chance at improving your current setup or your current or future build, It helped me a lot in the area that would have to ask a lot of questions about because it applies to drag and street cars, Make sure you read it a few times and think about the refridgerator, 12 ft board, coat hanger, and how they relate to the suspension parts.

You should also check out this page too  http://www.geocities.com/kdslaby/Tech_Page_Glossary.html  I think it's the page he had before the actual baseline site was up.
