Why? You know what's going to happen.

Maybe I should have expressed my lack of knowledge and experience with chassis and four link....

I am not sure what will happen the first time I launch.

How do I adjust the corner weights without cutting metal and welding it to the other side? Will "light corner" shock adjustments do the job?

And on a second note, does anyone have suggestions for first time launches? Half RPM, transbrake, half throttle? I like the balls to the wall method, but I'm trying toget a little smarter as I get older.

Thanks in advance,

Steve

I'm not saying it will work for you but, i adjust everything nutural, then put a couple turns on the right rear coil, then use foot brake so it doesn't leave too hard or point the front end in the air, that way i still have some control just in case it does pull one way or the other.
