Found out why the left slick was unloading so much!!! Simulating wheelies with rear scales under the slicks uncovered rear weight transfer issues! This video covers how I corrected the left rear unloading & confirmed with scales. Also, this video shows wheelie bar weights under each wheelie bar wheel & the impacts on the rear slicks & how fast weight moves with wheelie bar stagger!
This is some really good information. I fought with my car 6-7 years ago doing this same thing trying to get in the high 9's. Never did figure it out as i had no crew at the time and just gave up on it. My starting line ratio was 12.546 and it would lift the left rear slick just enough on the hit to drive it to the left every pass. Great info.
