I am not too bad when it comes to grammar and spelling but good god.

Aside from the comment, I would say you need to explain more about the engine combo, power, race weight, gearing, drive train, tire size. Sure we can all suggest things but in order to give proper advice, I think we need a little more.

Give us a call and we can talk over your project. Adjustable stuff is the route you will want to take. We can also do a 1" per side narrowed front end to give you a bit more tuck on the front tires.

A 1" narrow will not work with stock rims. It does help pull skinnies in. It was just an option that I mentioned.
