I'm up for it but I need a lot of time. I still need to get the meth injection, new track tires, new brake pads and rebuild my calipers. I won't be able to do it until probably next year.

Nope, go back and read, slowly, read my post, the read the post above, then re-read.

I know you can't be pinned down to what you said, semantically. But I'm also fairly certain that you meant a solid axle is as good as IRS. Why else would you have allowed an argument to develop? Rather than just immediately clarifying what you meant.

But either way, IRS > 3 Link. Glad we are all on the same page

Irs is pure shit and I am modifying it on my BMW's as we speak. I'm modifying them to have transverse leaf springs.

I've said it a dozen times in multiple threads. On a prepped track, a three link can keep up with an IRS.

Ya, and a properly prepped IRS can keep up with a solid axle in a drag race. Who gives a shit? A solid axle is still the better platform for drag racing. I hope that wasnt the point you were trying to make

A transverse composite monoleaf would definitely help cut down the weight on that tub of guts.
