Never have locked or flat spotted any tires. I do have

To balance out but that is what it is about ..proportioning valve

He'll my old mustang (Chet's car now) had Baer 6 pistons
Up front and drums in the back. Car is very light but still
Stopped very well. 245-16's all the way around
That car was 2810lbs so that helps
Greg's should be lighter. Weight always wins in my book

Pantera is beefy at 3040 lbs

I've alway said it boils down to weight and tires. I'm always looking for ways to shed weight.
After 4 years of trying to balance the suspension(with what I'm working with anyways) I finally feel like its where i want it. Working on adding more power now and waiting to see what I'll break next.
