Why don't you strap down with T Hooks?

So, need to re-evaluate spring rates:

It's quick and easy to just throw on two straps through the wheels and go .

So, need to re-evaluate spring rates:
It looks like your front bar is too stiff; lifting the inside front? Are you thinking about stiffening your rear springs to keep the front down? I'd say too much rear squat, but looks like F/R is actually pretty level?

Not sure what you're running F/R, but everyone seems to be putting on massively stiffer front springs and then throwing in a solid 28mm front bar on top of that.

I am opting for an even F/R ratio. Just wondering if I made the right choice... and hoping my front won't be too soft on track.

I'm #400/700 Springs. Will increase front and rear spring to maintain same bias, or even perhaps more rear spring than front to up the rear motion ratio and dial out some bad behavior of the car.

Wheel lift isn't an issue for me. It's minimal. The squat, however is bad

Its not. Those pictures are from earlier this year. There's a 15lbs Odyssey in there... Doors are also gutted, dash gutted, AC deleted, heater core deleted etc.

Those photos are the nicest ones I have that show the interior.
