4th gen drag radial 3350lb,315 m/t , bmr t/a, lca, koni double adj coilovers in rear, 5 compression, 6 rebound, 3.89 gear, Front is santhuff strut, singles, 632 12 deg. powerglide 1.80 1st, leaving around 3600 rpm.also tried 3400, We have tried bringing a small hit off the brake and have tried hitting the tires harder with a little bigger hit and neither has worked. It will start to hook and leave good but then just blow the tires off about 30-40 ft out. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Also we are using a edelbrock progessor.

have you tried it with the compression on the rear full stiff or close to full stiff? I know a cuople radial cars locally have stated real stiff on the compression side.

bdas70

Madman is the expert when it come to hooking 4th gen. I recommend calling him to start with. He is a sponsor here and you can find him on the list to the right.

You may also have to adjust instant center but Im not that great on explaining that so hopefully madman will come in, if not I highly suggest giving him a call.

ok, sorry about the delay on the videos. Here are some from last weekend and yesterday from MIR. Yesterday the track was hot so not the best conditions.

If you are still on the same settings on the shocks I can see they are too loose both ways. Also the bars are hitting the ground and trying to unload.

also many guys have found out that as soon as they hit the bars with a radial car it just unloads the tire most of the time and spins big time. so basically what madman said.

Also found out today the Moser axles are twisted.

Give us a call if we can help. I have been switching all our radial cars to Strange axles.

Madman pm sent

Moser is sending a pair of 40 spline axles for the twisted 35 splines.
