I race my 94 eclipse at the local dirt track in West Liberty, Iowa. I have a fast car on the straight away and back stretch, but I seem to lose Horsepower in the corners. Any suggestions on what I can do to the car to help me through the corners better? Setups? Springs? Anything.

Lower is always better. Just make sure its not so low that you end up hitting stuff.

so, what type of suspension should i go with? I currently have a spring rubber in the right front, but it seems like i need to go another route. A suspension that a local store sells. Autozone or Orielly's.

You have to understand, this is dirt racing. Not a lot of money to spend. Cheaper way.

skunk 2 doesnt give you the good handling that he is looking for though. Those are more for looks than for handling
