The great thing about that and all chassis from CAR is that they were able to tune the car afterwards. They just got that car finished without testing the car before going to the PHR test grounds. They figured out they needed more spring, and more bar and a few other minor adjustments to make it right, and they didn't have time before hand. Also the car blew the clutch in 5th gear down the 1/4 mile during that same test while posting a 130+ trap. This comes from not being able to have time to sort that car out. Now that car is a 1g car able to run low 10's high 9's in the quarter on street tires. It's an awesome car. Once they tune the chassis for each car, it's the best one you can have due to the fact that you can tune everything, that's one reason why they insist on doing the work themselves.
cool.
