Front end setup (Drag Racing)

The stiffness of the front end has to do with the power and how much your getting to the ground. When you make vary little, a stiff front would cause the load on the rear to release do to eng not being able to keep the torque after the launch. so you need lots of travel and a soft front suspension.

High power will whack the suspect, bottom it out(top it out) and unload the rear tires.

when you're starting out (stock and up power) you need a loose suspension with lots of travel to keep the load transfer going.
The harder you launched the stiffer/slower you want that front end coming up, to also keep the rear tires planted.

I know none of this from experience, just from reading............Which make me the "Educated Idiot".:D
