The extra rake should work better while in tow truck mode

Wow. And I thought I was bad that I knowingly knew after stripper therapy with no alignment my front was jacked up but decide to track it anyway and it sucked bigtime. You hold the trophy now : ). Mike

Incorrect. You're starting a snowball effect here. I've had the car about 3-4 years. I forget.

I'm the 3rd owner.

Car has been aligned at least 5x since I owned it. I just haven't fiddled with ride height or CB.

You don't listen to me because you keep forgetting to replace the battery in your miracle ear

On the contrary, I've been discussing with Rad since you brought it up to me at Sebring a couple months ago.

I think you have the cup wing, you may need to adjust it as dropping the front is going to increase the wing angle so if you become aero tight in high speed sweepers and you can adjust the wing you may need to reduce the angle if you can.

I would highly suggest fresh tires.

Good luck
Car was aligned and adjusted on track wheels with fresh'ish Nittos.

You can't ban the dawg. Too much entertainment value. Besides, who else is going to manage Peter's success when Trak Car Nation blows up?

Glass houses with gravel trap stones still in his undercarriage. You're not allowed to participate in deputy bashing till you break the 3 minute barrier at Sebring

Still waiting for that promised wire transfer to get things rolling.

Until it clears, your request might get accidentally misplaced under my desk.
