I was talking with Scott Jones and trying to learn the difference in the front suspension setup, he is playing with a leaf spring style, what are you running in the VW torsion setup? did you have to remove a lot of torsion springs? We all know the stock torsion springs are stiff for a glass bodied buggy, it must be even worse for the tunnel buggy with virtually no weight in the front.
