Nice, I’ve been looking into chassis set up to turn my 68 olds A body into a road course car and I come across your channel. Trying to find info on how the old pros did it back in the day, not much out there on road course setups. Look forward to see what you do with it.
@@71wicker I ran ito the same lack of information to find when I was searching a few years ago. Old stuff isn't any good if you find it because all the old riad race series rules were largely "stock" based or were completely one off racecars. The info is out there but the hard part is that some is drag racing, some is circle track, and you need to blend them together and make it is the same when turning both directions. Best advice I got when starting was make everything adjustable. Even you think you'll never need to. Its much easier to figure a setup out and what you and the car want when you can try a wide range of settings
@@jasonhattrich3521 having it be a newer body isn't the point. Besides all the new stuff is heavy and IMO super ugly. If I did that it wouldn't be any lighter than my current car... possibly even heavier at a significantly higher expense
I think anytime a Cutlass is rebuilt into a racecar is a perfect ideal 👍👍
Hey that first pic you showed of u sitting on the front of it is a pic I took! Love it and that car
Looking forward to this.
