Your car looks great! how much of a drop do you have? I hear people have to put their stock springs back on because it affects their launch, whats up with that?

If the car is lower then stock height, when you launch, and all that power is thrust back, theres less room for the car to "squat" on the rear tires, and hookup.

Awesome Car - great stance!
BUT, it was the Mach 1 chin spoiler he was asking about.

You have less room in your wheelwells than mity2 who says he has a 2" drop. His looks stock height. anyway, your car looks great!
