yep, super light is not always a good thing but it all can be tuned. Beauty of starting with a light car and link suspension. You can add and move weight around and tune AS for traction.

Your gonna want some rear weight biased. 45 front/ 55 rear.

Most of those cars Greg speaks of are still tri 4 bar rears with not a lot of tire. With a clean sheet suspension a lot of improments can be made. Long arm 3 link, cantillever coil overs and watts comes to mind.

Let the rear end go if he wants it. Your probably better off starting fresh. Theres a bunch to change on the current rear end housing.
