IRS drag racing setup?

[N/A Q45]

The more rear weight transfer you get, the more pressure there is on the tires, the more force there is pushing them to the ground, the more they will hook up. It works not just for drag, but for trying to find traction on any RWD car. We utilize a very thick/solid front swaybar to get even more cross-weight transfer when cornering to load the outside rear tire. When the car isn't turning enough, we need to dial in more slip, so we will increase tire pressures and bump the damping up.

I agree but there's also power loss to take into consideration, it takes X-to move Y-
Force being X- and Suspension being Y-. When the suspension is being squatted that is power that could be put into moving the cars chassis forward instead of down.
Good ole physics, can be interesting.

This thing doesn't even really squat, it just lifts the front and goes! That's what I am try to do.. harder then it looks.

There is definitely a happy medium, you dont want it flopping backwards =)

Well I'm back to stock suspension in the rear, I can't really tell if it works better or not yet as my afrs are too lean until 4k to make good power off the line to test it on launchs, but it will still spin for a few ft as it is from trying it once
.. then it is kind of slow until it hits 4k, it is still a hand full and spins even now as it is squatting lol.. so I think I just need wider tires and then see. But I did notice when I hit it at 100kph it doesn't spin now it just squats and hauls a-s! it's kind of violent actually with the traction at 100kph I can't even move forward feels like I'm glued to the seat literally lol so it helped out there I think.
