ok right now i have all stock crap and i wanted to upgrade for next race season.I already have a set of 90/10 lakewoods for the front and i have 4cyl springs in the front.My goal is to get it to pull the wheels pretty good,it already will pull one every now and then.What would be my best bet as far as mods to help me achieve this.:Track:

Weight transfer is key and plenty of power.

Remove as much weight from the nose and setup the rear suspension. Don't forget to take off the sway bar (if you haven't already)

There will be an amount of body roll without the sway bar, but if you are setting the car up for the 1/4 mile track than it is expected.

you can take it off and drive around the block to get used to it. If it makes you too uncomfertable, you can always reinstall it.

A lot of people told me I would not notice a difference if I remove my sway bar during daily driving. crapola I don't think it is unsafe to drive without one, but you will definitely notice a difference in the way the car handles. Would I do it again? Yes I can put up with the crappy handling, plus that damn bar is heavy.

I would go with some soft springs in the rear as well to let the rear drop when the front comes up.

I would only do the swaybar if it is for the track. Not for every day use.
