Thanks for the complements guys, The rears are 15x10" rims with 9x29.5x15 slicks. The rear spacing is 4.5 if I remember correctly, I have had this car 18 years. By the way, the inner lip on the rear is rolled for clearence.

Seeing the pictures, it looks like she's really hooking up good and tracking straight off the line. Nice ride. Billy.

Nice car. What is your rear suspension set up to keep the car off those tires?

I have had this set up for 18 years. Never has the tires rubbed. As you can see how it sets in the burnout box and how there is seperation on launch. I now have all new Calvert springs and bars, It sets a little bit higher, I liked it better as you see it in the photos.
