To do that you need two things:

1) Removal of negative camber!!!! Get rid of it at all costs or risk spinning and crashing. I wish I still had the vid of my puckering experience because of that. And I was half way down the strip.

2) Angle of wing, or just take it off. It will kill your trap speed.


Your car may trap a 140 in good conditions. Due partially to hp and the other part to weight reduction.

no interest in drag racing unless it is down the back straight at Sebring.
