Hello i have recently started running some non wing 305 shows which i have done quite well at with 2 2nds and a win. But all i am doing is guessing on setups. I am wondering if there are any cheat sheets out there to help with changes depending on what the car is doing in the corner. I am running an eagle 88-40 car.

ha-ha not gonna disagree with that at all. just looking for alittle to help so i can understand what my adjustments are doing. i have found the car likes to work off the rr more that it would if i had the wing on it. just want to understand it more so I can make it faster. i no i like this non wing stuff ten times better. hoping i can find some where to run it full time next year.

Set your car up just like you would before hot laps, put it on a set of scales. Adjust as you have been and see how the weight changes. You will learn a lot. Move wheel spacing in and out....raise and lower the car. It helped me out

Get one of Jimmy Sills sprintcar books it tells you alot diffrent setups . I have one and i find it very helpful on my setups when i race . I had a gambler but not happy with it . I like my eagle alot better .
