    I'm running stock front suspension on my Comet for the track except for 90/10 shocks. Any tricks or tips for an 11 sec car or is this about it? It seems to hook good and go where I aim it.

    Disconnect front sway bar will help with weight transfer

    Got traction and goes straight.............Front end is good. That's the way I see it.

    Install racing springs of some type so the front end will rise quicker.

    If it's got traction, there is no need.
