I was thinking of getting my Dart Lined up soon as it has started to pull to the right.



I plan to use it a lot for the strip, so I wanted to know if I should get the Drag race Alignment or just Stick to the stock Specs.

Be really honest with yourself about how the car will really be driven. How often will it be on a dragstrip versus the road? I would definitely lean towards a standard alignment for anything that is going to see street duty. Drag race alignments are set for full throttle blasts with the front end raised up. Driving the car around on the street with that type of alignment will be frustrating, cause premature tire wear, and could potentially be unsafe. I would leave the drag race alignment for the drag only car. It's not like you're going to drop that much time off of your E.T. because of that difference in alignment.

That's my 2 cents.
