First three drag times. I guess that 12.7 is about what this car is worth in this iteration. Street tires, 285mm. Humid and 70* in MD.

This is a guide to which part is what in my suspension.

This is the ground control system, a picture from their website. I have basically an identical system on mine. All of the links have spherical bearings. So, there is no play and no bushings on any of the links. I could hang in the air from any one of these without feeling any give.

This is the results from the alignment. The alignment was done on all four tires because I was replacing toe links and camber arms. I also had a constant tracking to the right before the alignment that wasn't fixed completely by the alignment. I talked to the guy and he offered to do it again but let me know hay he would be messing up a good alignment to fix the tracking because the tracking wasn't caused by the alignment but something else. I can't say one way or the other from these numbers.

Ignore the baldness of the tire in general, the point here is that 285 rear tires on a Crossfire with a bottomed out suspension will rub inside wheel well and outer wheel well also. These tires were driven until they blew out.

Rear tire 285 width at lowest setting using very old set of ground control adjustable spring which caused rubbing until radials were exposed.

Picture of my car before I owned it. Stolen from internet. Also, the brembo brakes visible here. The front grill was replaced at some point before I bought it. It's now wire mesh.

The Needswings kit of Koni struts and ?Eibach? Springs don't manage to keep the car high enough to avoid rubbing on the wheel well. And the pictured sway bar link (adjustable) was so retracted that the sway bar was riding on the camber arm, so the suspension literally felt like metal on metal, no struts or shocks.

The car was pretty low to the ground when I got it. All four tires were sliced and gouged and rubbed straight through the radials.

Back rims with spacers for 285mm wide tires. About 11 inches wide.
