I forgot to add -- the more grip a car has - the more "G" force it can produce -- thus multiplying the weight of the car "side loads".... and I'm sure most of these big ass fatty tired cars are capable of 1 g +.... so now you hang that big wide tire - on a deep dish wheel and put it way to the outside of the bearing/rotor and it's no wonder we're seeing this discussion.

I thought we learned about LEVERAGE in the 4th grade??

I love Monday morning quarter backs. I suppose you are a Tebow fan to?

Sometimes it seems it takes a lot of time for some of you to figure this all out.... I'm not sure we can live thru 3 more years of shock adjusting. :rofl:

Maybe go out and buy a separate set of wheels and tires for the track events... and save yourself a whole bunch of bs..... But then I forgot the whole Optima argument about race cars on the street... :unibrow:

Just to be clear -- my '32 Ford has a full floater rear end... by definition... :D

The drive axle is driving a floating stub axle and thus only transmits the torque load...

By wheels and tires for a track day, do you mean something kind of similar to this :unibrow:

Or do you actually mean just wheels and tires?

Oh that reminds me, has anyone tried this approach to solving knockback?

For a fat guy you're not very jolly.

Yep ---- You want to track a car buy a track car... leave the show car at home.

:rofl:

Want a perfect "race car" just buy a new $60,000 Corvette... save yourself all the hassle. I've beat on 'em for days at the track - no knock back whatsoever!

:D
