SuperStock spring tips.

June 1965

'Black Arrow' {1965 Plymouth Belvedere 'Race Hemi'} S/SA

One of the 'best' launching cars ever.

Suspension set up by Tony Pizzi and Bill 'Grumpy' Jenkins.

* Spacer-shims between the front leaf spring hangers and frame.
* Unequal length rear shackles.
* 'Drag Shocks'

This was done to compensate for leaf spring wind-up.

While the other Super/Stock Hemi cars were rising at line, the 'Black Arrow' was launching
forward and usually jumped out to a full car-length lead.

Both the nose and rear of 'The Black Arrow' rose evenly. It was a 'Thing of Beauty' to watch.
