For those of you that are getting to the track, what are you using to stabilize the front end? At 90+ mph the front seems to start to float a little. I've used a bolt on front spoiler, but I was wondering if there are some better ideas out there?

The front valance/air damn on the TCP Race Car looks like it would work well. Is there a bolt on air damn?

Any ideas?

I recently saw a similar setup on a '70 Boss 302 track beast at the Fabulous Ford show.

most importantly is make sure that your front end is fresh, bad ball joints are some of the drift that you'll feel at speed. Your car needs to have alot of negative caster to feel safe, alot of rear spring rate to stop the arse from squating and it helps to have some slope in your car...fronts got to be lower to start with. my '67 has never been on a large track I've only been up to 110 ish on the track but I've gone over 142 on the 605 freeway {7am holiday ZERO traffic I didn't endanger anyone but me} 5200 rpm,tremec,4:11's and 26" tires that was my weak motor new one would have pulled rpm quicker I had to slow down for the 210 interchange
