You could always put in tubes. Help stabalize the car at the top end on the 10.5.

OP you definitely have a quick car if you can figure out the 60' Your car isn't that heavy so it should 60' much better.

Definitely upper and lower control arms as was mentioned. Possibly get that pinion angle down a little more to lift that motor. shocks and maybe a different front spring, something with a little more pounds per inch compression to help transfer the weight.

Maybe relocate some of the weight to the rear of the car? Battery?

Definitely work on the tire pressure!

Let us know how you do on the next outing!
