Congrats JMatt. You and srt-hardware (Chad) finally pulled the LX platform into the 10's. But you own the record of being the fatstest LX in the world. Now where is the Charger that is going to hit the 10's??
Outstanding Matt! Is there more tweaking to dial in the coilovers more, or are they all they way in one direction?
Huge Kudo's Matt. From the pesty kid asking about N2O to Dr. N2O. Just wait to you get the 426 in there. Yehaw!!! I may have to get some of your coilovers before long. The I-Charged 426 with N2O is going to be a monster.
The coilovers have plenty of adjustment left. Although I was at 85% soft on compression, I was at 62% firm on rebound. To go even softer, I'd just start with a slightly softer spring. In all honesty, I think when the fronts are ready I'll actually need to start firming it back up. Right now the back is being asked to handle most of the weight transfer duty, as our stock fronts are horrible. Based on 60' time alone, Chad would hold the record easily if he had my coilovers. :beer: And Hal - if you're gonna have a prayer of hooking that monster up, you sincerely need coilovers. When I can beat PPP in a 60' race - with me coming off the line without spray, but hooking like mad - you know they're working. Working great!!

Congrates JMatt. We just started the R&D process for the NAG transmissions last week. After your record setting run, I think we need to step it up a notch.
