Ride height and High Speed Stability
Last winter I redid my suspension - bushings - shocks - torsion bars all around. The setup is probably somewhere near street aggressive. Stiffer than stock. Anyway I also added a front spoiler and my biggest complaint was that the car didn’t feel any more stable at speed. This past weekend I lowered my ride height in the front about a half inch. I can’t remember whether it is front or rear where the wheel arch is slightly higher but either way my front is riding at around 24 and 3/4 which should be giving me a slight rake. Before my rake was 0. Now the car feels super planted at speed. Is it the ride height or the rake that’s contributing more to this? I love the change. Just trying to understand why.
