NOW is the time to update your suspension.
A Dragvette 6-Link Suspension System. Will make your
Corvette a SUPER THREAT ! Used by road
racers, auto crossers, drag racers and enthusiastic street drivers.
Originally developed for drag racing. It soon became apparent The
6-Link improved all types of driving disciplines. Every type of
driving requires maximum traction. The 6-Link does this by establishing the
largest tire contact patch by holding the tire straight up and down to the
pavement. Old bias tires may have worked better with the camber moving all
over but today's radials with stiffer side walls don't. Road racer Brett
Jarvis set the 6-link at 1/2 negative camber and found the middle and
inside edge of the tire to be 180 degrees while the outside edge was 170
degrees. This set up still allowed Bret to outperform his competition by 2
seconds per lap when racing at Road America in Wisconsin. He plans to adjust
the camber to less than 1/2 deg for his next outing. You can adjust the
system to hold 0 degrees though out the travel of the suspension or you can
set it a any camber and it will hold that same amount of camber though out
the 6-Links travel. A small camber setting will have minimal effect on the
straight line performance. We recommend 0 degrees camber for drag racing and
enthusiastic street driving.
While Corvette drivers make all types of changes to
their rear suspension including springs, shocks, changing to coil overs,
double adjustable shocks, dual mount springs, shark bite systems, all in the
pursuit of better handling. The truth is they can
all help but none of them fix the real problem and that's getting as much of
the tread on the road as
possible.
