Most cars with sprung rears have one or both of these problems . (1) Too much rear roll stiffness (to overcome the effects of drive shaft torque) or (2) unequal rear wheel loading under acceleration

Sounds to me what you are describing is similar to the 3rd generation F Body GM cars. Nice to know about the offset, Now just need a way to modify the original mount. Bill much . oversteer roll fix

If a torque-tube equippped car also uses a solid rear axle, the axle bump & rebound twist is usually taken up by the motor mounts. Obviously only a limited axle travel is possible. Yes, IRS is the u

Lance; It would work just fine... but without a torque tube, it still flexes the chassis under engine torque. If the chassis is stiff enough, no problem, but with long, skinny LSR cars, it isn't eas

Nobody has mentioned it lately-- but you can completely eliminate this torque-steer problem with chain (or belt) drive. You still have to make the chassis stiff enough to keep your sprockets aligned,

Didn't a driver get decapitated by a broken chain years ago at Daytona Beach? Not a pleasant prospect to think what could happen if a chain breaks; I wonder if a belt drive might be better? Regards,
