Thanks i appreciate it...No ive never had my car corner balanced.Very nice run. Have you had your car corner balanced? I have the same suspension and very happy with it. I had given some thought about changing my 456 to a 430
It can make a huge difference on how the car reacts to the launch. Getting the rear tires to hit evenly. I think this may help you in the et game. It did me my car would go slightly right on launch but, this corrected it completely.Thanks i appreciate it...No ive never had my car corner balanced.
