whats happening in the straps that causes the wheels to unload?

 

when the straps is pull thight it trys to lift the tire off the ground

 

oic. so does that same principal apply to short stroke shocks?

 

yes,it dose not work

 

thanks fabman. since those don't work what does work? shocks with adjustable rebound/compression? i'm guessing you want the front to have soft compression and hard rebound, and for the back you want hard compression and soft rebound, when running no wheelie bars. any hints on front spring weight? thanks again.

 

with out a wheelie bar?????

 

yea no wheelie bar

 

Thanx hmmmm gotta get better 60's.

what's your best 60', on the azenis?

 

1.998 with the B16

2.17 with B20vtec

 

u do a burnout with the azenis, to heat them up? my best with the azenis is actually a 2.1 on the b20, but i'm hoping to hit 1.9's the next time i hit the track! have you figured out why your 60' time, went up with the b20 set up!

 

The azenis were heat cycled to death. I had to use them when dynoing as they were the only tyres that size that I had. I've only done three passes with the B20 so practice would probably get the times back down but I got crappy Nitto DR's now

 

i'mnna need some practice, i haven't been to the track for about 4 months. my tranny too a dump on me, and i have been trying to put my hands on a gsr ys1 but it hasn't happen yet! i think you'll be in the 12's pretty soon, like in the next few times you hit the track

 

Yeah I got the mph just working on the traction at the moment....

 

i heard the straps help stop wheel hop ...is this true or do they not work? ...and are the limiting straps on summitracing.com the same strap you guys are talking about?
