hey were wondering if anyone races cavaliers on asphalt ovals and what they do to handle better and get more power, so far : swaybar removed, found best tires pressures, and RF camber 3 degrees(max allowed RF only)
thinking of heating the coils to lower it, and adding a rear swaybar(would that help?)
THANKS and good racing!

i race a sunfire, i run shorter tires on the left side, Falken tires at least on the right side, and for the rear swaybar i'm not so sure, will repost tomorrow. what tire pressure you race?

seasons over now but we ran 35ish on RF, 32 RR, and mid 20s on the inside but struggled with the 14's, we first had 15" but the car is auto so to get more rpm we changed to 14's, 185-195/60 and 70 series on the back was working the best, we have to have the same size per axle, for next year im going to try a rear swaybar, new struts, cut springs, and a new engine as i blew up 2 that season and wrecked one subframe :P
what track do ya race at?
