heres mine

Vettes and the IRS arent good for drag racing.
Thats funny. A vettes IRS would own your straight axle EVERY time stock for stock from a dead stop. They grip WAY better.

If you have an f-body running 10's then your suspension is not stock.

I have owned a couple vettes and thier IRS was part of the reason I decided on a 240sx when we were deciding on what import to use in the build. 2700 lb RWD with IRS.

ok rb26powered, With IRS from a launch the weight is transfered to the rear suspension cause the wishbones to pivot on thier respective hinges therefore adding negative camber. with a straight axle there is little to no change in camber angle of the wheels during launch. Camber is great for cornering but your worst nightmare from a dig. perhaps if the vette had MTslicks this wouldnt be a prob but he spun plain and simple. can we drop this now?
