I'm sure the vendors in the PT arena are loving($) it. Good time to be selling parts and services, IMO.
I had no idea that it was a car show. Well that's cool that a car show had some kind of track. They sure don't do that around here. :(

hey Steve1968ls2, any answers to my questions a few pages back regarding raising bellcrank on the watts or rear bar availability to minimize body roll?

Not yet, I'm certainly not a Watt's expert. But, raising the bellcrank should change the CG and help limit body roll. To what degree I'm not sure.

Some thought my front was too soft and it rolling over was forcing the back over. Still, even with the body roll the tires stayed on the pavement, thus my good times.

Steve didn't you go to a 450# front spring? That's 100# lighter than what I have, and was recommended to start with...your thoughts? Course I have an iron block and stock SF....
