I loaded the Dart up this afternoon to go to test & tune at my local track. This track is known to not hook well. On the first pass the car felt like it was hooking then unloading the tires and repeating, it ran 6.42 @ 108 and change with a 1.42 60'. So I made a small adjustment to the front shocks. On the second pass I tried the trans brake and it bumped through the beams and red lit, then blew the tires on the hit. I made a small adjustment to the rear shocks and went back up for the last run, in the right lane this time. The results are in the photo below.
