A independent rear is only marginally better in some ways. The adjustabilty for negative camber is always a plus in handling.

So until your car is faster than mine in a straight line, on a road course, and costs less, I will play with the camaro. I like how you talk shit about a car that kills yours in every way. No wait...you probally get better gas milage than me. Oh well...

But I guess not everyone can drive a festiva.

do i sense a cage match coming up

Haha... he got mad because I'm pointing out the obvious. No wonder it's the most developed chassis in the world, GM did such a shitty job of engineering it in the first place, everyone else had to go in and fix their **** up.

I seriously doubt that your car handles better or brakes better then mine. As for as being fast in a straight line, we'll have to see about that once my headers and performance module come in from Ebay.

Theres not to much difference in the chassis set up between drag and course. There is howerver a difference in suspension.Its clear you only touched the front suspension and not the rear. The leafs are fine if you know something about course racing, but you don't.Independent rear is the way to go. CASCAR, NASCAR, etc, use a simular 4 links suspension as a drag car does. They also use coilovers and sometimes coilover eliminators to get better handling in the corners. Anyways, leafs are very good for a course car, but I have heard the Camaros can make good course cars if you can tune the suspension right.

I like how people forget seeing cougar and 69 dart do pass on W and 16 a few years ago.

And i did beat the Festive with my old setup and auto trany with u even saying that i was all over the road. But that was along time ago and both cars have changed and i still vote your car as sleeper of the year.

Its funny how everyone will run u down on your bad days but dont say shit about the good days LOL.

Cya in spring.
