37 coupe VS. 34 coupe

[Cweaver]

you never see 37 coupes but i have one and can't get it to handle as well as the 34's i called 600 racing and they said there built on the same jig and the only differce is the head bar if thats so then why do u ever see them out front?

Less popular body style???
Not really sure.
What seems to be the problems you are having with the handling?
I'm sure someone here will have some answers.

We have 37 coupes that can run at the front here on the east coast of Canada. Setups are the same.

Hi Corey,

 First, you need to sort out your brake problem. Your cornering speed is going to be slower with that right front pulling.
 I think you could go a % or 2 heavier on the rear weight. Maybe Geoff could give you a better idea on weight percentages. Also, check out some of the old threads on set ups. Maybe start with this one:

There are some others also. There are also links in Megamangs' Reference Material thread. Try Kevscorner and Littleracecars.

Hope that helps you out some.
If not, Keep asking until we can help you narrow it down.

I am sure that I can help you out with weights and percentages but first I would need to know exactly what you have now. I would need your complete setup right to your air pressure.  You can send it to me in a pm or email it to me if you like. My email is geoff @ bevanboysracing.ca.
