Awesome. You can see it preload before he launches and than how it stays extended the entire pass.

For some reason my rear raises when I take off too. It preloads a little like that car. Here's a vid of it taking off. I would like to get a vid of the shocks like that on my car.

akipper, have you tried launching off of idle, flashing the converter thus causing the suspension to get shocked?

Yes I have. I get better 60' times preloading it like that. It cuts high 1.5 low 1.6 60' times when I flash it. Next time I can make it to the track I will try it both ways again and get my camera person to film it and see how it takes off.

Good cause that's what mine does. I have seen alot of f-body cars that squat on take off, I always wondered why mine would lift and not squat. I was told it was because of my Lower control arm relocation brackets. I have a drag bar in my car now and it don't seem to lift as much on take off. Here is a vid after the drag bar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1T2b-4INpQs

Chris, In that vid I would say yours rotates but dosen't squat. The distance between the wheel well and tire stays the same.

The blazer pushes down on the shock and "squats" That is why we are slow
