Torque Arm??

Re: Torque Arm??
I went from a stock TA with a urethane bushing to an adjustable stock mount TA from Spohn. I adjusted the pinion angle to 2 deg. negative and did not improve at all from a previous best of 1.60. Now I put it on towards the end of the season when the track wasn't prepped too well. Also I think I'm overpowering the BFG DRs now (275 17s) and it might be time for some 15s with some sidewall to flex and help the launch.
The Spohn is a beefy piece and Steve and Gordon are very good guys to deal with (I live 1 hour from them). I recommend it, but I'll hafta get back with you next season to see if it really helped improve my 60s. It did make the car more consistent, however, I just didn't lose any time off my 60'.

I keep mine at -2, and like has been said, I can feel the power hitting the ground quicker and harder. My biggest problem now is keeping the car from overpowering the tires at the slightest stab of the throttle .
