Ride hight and damping settings for drag racing?
People that are running 32 way adjustable coil overs. A few questions for you.
1. What hight are running your evo for drag?
2. How are you measuring it? From ground to fender?
3. The damping, what do you have it set at?
4. Soft all the way around? Or how many clicks if 32 way adjustable front and back?
The tire I am going to be running is the RX7 rim with Hoosier QTP combo.
Thank you for looking and for the advice.

Most of the cars i see hook up good are wayyy soft in the back for sure! Dont know about the front, i wouldnt think it would be as soft as the rear. As far as ride height, rule of thumb is the taller the car, the more weight transfer to the rear when you take off.
With 26x10.5 tires on mine i had it fairly low but with the rear shocks set stiff. When i soften the shock i have to raise the car to keep it from scrubbing the fender on take off. Next time i race it im going to start all the way soft and then stiffen it until my 60ft. times are effected, There would be the sweet spot.
