I wouldn't say that this is an incorrect statement... lol I did originally build this thing to tow, and be super fun on the street. I got hooked on racing and will now be pursuing that more. But I still want a VERY streetable fun rig that won't have any problems pulling the grades around here with a 30ft toy hauler hooked up the maybe 3-4 times a year that might happen.

SOOO. any thoughts on the numbers the calculator spit out? I checked my spring rate calculation on a scale using a benchtop drill to compress it an inch, its within .5LB/in accurate.
