wow great advice.. did street stocks in top split and used brack could have used a little more but the car felt more stable and i finished 2nd and had fastest lap time in race as well.. thanks.. cant wait for the brake guide for the late models
Dragging the brake really helped at Charolette in the 360 last week for running the bottom. Helped me out run a 7000+ ir. So if you do it right it’s definitely fast in the right conditions.
'A sprint car has a single titanium brake rotor mounted on the live axle. So they run wide open and they use the brake to set the car. It will be cherry red when they are at speed. On a stock car you shouldn't apply the brakes if you are still applying the throttle. All cars except a sprint car will have standard brake systems. That means there is a rotor and caliper on each wheel. Ok, If you apply the brakes while you are still applying the gas the chassis is now confused because the static weight if the car is now out of place and the chassis gets more weight put onto the chassis than usual so the chassis cannot rebound as fast and the weight will transfer back to the rear of the car slower. A chassis and how the weight of the car moves around is pretty straight forward and if you have just a pretty basic understanding of how to make a chassis that works for you If anyone would like to know what "POLAR MOMENT" is send me a message or just leave a comment and I will explain it. It is a part of every race car.

going to try this with late models and other cars and see if i can get faster times
Thanks, great vid.
Thanks helps a lot
