The guy is runnin 11s man....my guess is that it would take well over 350+ hp... probably even over 400hp to get our 7th gens into the 11s...do you really think that after all the money he has invested into that car already that he forgot to upgrade his suspension??? C'mon, the car is dippin in the rear because its pullin hard. I've seen a lot of fast cars do that.

You act like replacing springs is going to somehow miraculously eliminate the rear end of ANY car from dipping during hard shifts on a drag strip. No springs on earth can prevent 100% of that from happening. I dont care how stiff the springs are.

Then thats what you should have said from the very begining you fvckin *****. Now lets not behave any more like children since both of our points have been made.
