Was reading an article on circle tracks website lately exploring the differences just thought I'd see what the locals thought with regards to delaware speedway the article gave pros and cons of both what I found really interesting was the numbers which sounded kinda crazy to me 980 and 1130 for front springs with 1 1/8 medium bar 175 and 200 in the rear the article seemed to lean towards this due to the increase in consistency the current trend seems to be to run 500s up front with 1 3/8 heavy bar up front with around 225 and 275 out back obviously delaware is a fairly rough track and a lot of people say its to absorb the bumps but I just thought I'd put it out there and see what people have tried what they liked what they hated and why
Maybe give the new guys a starting point or at least help everyone find what they aren't seeing or what questions they should be asking of their setup
I find the reasons we hated something are often more enlightening than just following trends or what the leaders are running every setup IS different so who hated what and WHY maybe my problem is your solution
Bbss is not designed for trucks I'll tell ya that much.we tryed it last yr and we were slower then with it then we were with a conventional setup (bssb)
Personal preference I think, I like on the softer side in the front, but I don't 225 and 275 in the back though either when I'm working on the stock based stuff.
On our original nova which got destroyed last year we had a 700rf, 650lf, 1 1/8 bar, 175rr and 150lr. Rears were dirt springs. This seemed to work pretty well for us.
