4ths pro tree 7.0 index car

Moved the bars up to the middle hole
Set Pinion angle to -1.5
Rescaled
And squared rear up

Result
Car seems to react better/faster
Which is awesome .
But now is seems to be spinning more if the track isn’t tight.
Didn’t get any videos but I’m assuming I need to tighten up the rear shock to help with the hit , but anyways extremely happy with the reaction times
And thought I would share the info

I run 7.10 index but on a .500 Pro Tree. My car typically runs 6.70s so I have it restricted with an adjustable restrictor plate. In doing so the throttle response is slower so I struggle with the tree some. My car is ladder bar with bars in the middle set a 0 degrees and I run a 29.5x13.5 slick. I footbrake and leave at 3000. I was deep staging last year but this year I tighten up my front shocks a ton and it has helped greatly and I no longer have to deep stage. Since your already having issues hooking when track isn't perfect you still need that weight transfer to help with traction.
