9 seconds on 9 inches???
I'll point out the number of 9 second SS cars on a 9.0x30.0 radial slick and...caltracs and springs.
At a low 10/high 9 second level Ladders and four links simply aren't needed.
I just stood on the starting line a Divisional race a few weeks ago and watched a small tire, caltrac super stocker leave off the trans brake and scraped the rear valance panel.
There's also a guy here locally that has a BIG block X-brand car. Goes 1.20 in 60'...8.80 @ 155. 275 Drag radial...and caltracs and springs.
