Hi , guys and gals i need info on setting up my car , here is a little info to start with.I have raced in 2006 and came in 5th place points and most improved driver . The car i raced was a 4 door cutlas , 305 eng. with a 3 speed and 2/70 gears(not sure). The car was OEM nothing modified as not allowed due to track rules ,the car was stripped ,a rollcage , leaned front tire (r)and stiffened the front spring with the rachet type helpers , oh and new shocks . Well that car was trashed in a pile up on the last night of racing .I started a new car in 2007 , striped it and built roll cage . Would appreciate any help in the set up as my org. car was loose in the turns . I have a very low budget so any simple adjustments would be appr. Thanks #2

Bigger sway bar up front. Get your front/rear weight as close as possible to 50/50. A heavy front end will point well initially then push up the track. A heavy rear end will push on entry and then loosen up as you get deper into the corner.
