I here what your saying, and I am not saying my car would be solid as a rock at that speed, However, it would get there. I just need to make it safe. I am sure after the new adjustable shocks and springs, along with the adjustable sway bar, the car would feel pretty safe.

Here is a few pages of 200 mph cars, Scavos, Brian Metz, Bob Hood, and many others, I have seen these cars run and they do not get airborne. They are accelerating with almost 2000 hp trying to lift the car and make it airborn and they do not. They have no air dams or body mods, some only sit about 1" lower then my car, some do NOT. Anyone of these cars would need more work to sustain that speed, just like mine.

Anyway, back to the original fricken question.... What do you guys do to your cars to hit these speeds and have the car real stable. What shocks, spring rates, sway bars, etc??
