[DeTomaso] need formula for springs needed-- was shocks for ORR

[Mark McWhinney]

A 750 lbs load will compress a 750 lbs spring 1.00 inch.  
A 750 lbs load will compress a 700 lbs spring 1.07 inch.

How good is your butt-o-meter?

Jeff,
  I'm not a racer and its not a race car! ;-]> 
  Seriously, excellent idea....no one has mentioned that before. Anyone
noticed a discernable handling change on the street (positive or negative)
going from 700 to 750 rear springs?

  Racers have different equipment and settings depending on the track. Why
not 
get a second set of springs and shocks to use at Silver state? All you'd 
have to do is align it.
