It'Il do it next year. Suspension and other setup changes to match the successful recipe on the 8, and they're going to step the turbo up from the 6785.

Its going to get some real suspension on it and a 7685 again. We will get it motivated a little better in 2019.

whats "real suspension" in terms of an AWD drag car?


just in case it comes across wrong, this isn't a facetious question, I'm genuinely curious

The X has that stamped steel rear suspension vs the alum cast of the CT9A. Its possible ER is going w/a true ChroMo tubed rear subframe?

2 or 3 way adjustable coilovers for independent rebound and compression adjustments, with updated spring rates and base valving specs based on testing and success in the drag 8.

Subframes would only be for weight reduction, and the drag X already has tubular subframes.
