Default a bit of testing.....the results

so after initially running into mid-corner push with my new suspension and solving that by raising the car off the bump-stops, I now have a new dilemma....

my car is loose in left hand turns (READ: it *loves* turning left) and tight in right hand turns (READ: when i turn the wheel right my car says 'maybe tomorrow')

the ride height at all 4 corners is within 1/4inch of eachother. none of my sway bar endlinks are bound, I get full travel at each corner

anyone got any idea what could be causing this?

almost assuredly alignment - is the frame straight? (yes, I know it doesn't really have a frame)

disconnect swaybars and check for swaybar preload
check alignement
lower left front and right rear spring perch 1/2 turn
raise right front and left rear spring perch 1/2 turn

Sounds like you're ready to run Winston Cu...I mean.... Nextel Cup.
