I haven't taken my Z to the 1/4, not sure if I will, but most of my recent and upcoming mods are diff, diff bushings, camber and traction arms and new bushings. These will all help u put more usable power to the ground. Now talking specifically for the 1/4, getting the best tires are a must as well.

Awesome !!!

What suspension mods have you done ... ?
Any specific information would be greatly appreciated.
Suspension know how is not my forte tho' I've tried my best to find out about it.
My Z is supercharged and I did go with the Mickey Thompsons after experiencing some vicious wheel hop with the Michelin PSII's.

I have put in camber arms at the rear and set the camber to zero so far at the advice of other members ...I am only interested in the 1/4 mile.

Feel free to steer me in the right direction if I post something that is not expressed correctly...I am here to learn as well as share.

Thanks,
Bob
