Hi,

Anyone tried a 8.8 IRS (or Cobra) rear setup for asphalt? Dirt?

Give me your feedback!

Thanks,
Mouse

I honestly don't know if anyone's ever tried that before. The first question would be if it's legal. The second would be getting half-shafts and control arms strong enoguh to handle the rigors of circle track racing.

It's definitely an interesting concept. Since four-link suspensions are quasi IRS, there are definitely advantages to it.

Anyoe else thought about or seen this before?
