Thank You.





Why the solid rear?

My reasoning is that the C3 IRS is weak, and there is no way I would be ever to fully appreciate the power of the LS1 and T56 without being worried about braking the rear, especially with a 345 drag radial. Also to beef up the current IRS would far exceed the cost of a solid axle.
