When I first got my wagon back on the road, with locked nine inch and 4.11:1 ratio, I
ran a 13.54s and only had 120kw at the wheels.
Since changing to IRS, and power at 142kw, I have run a 13.30.
I found that the leaf sprung live axle really allowed good "wind-up" and awsome
launches. If I still had the nine-inch, and the extra power, a 13 flat should have
been attainable.
Having said that, the IRS, with about 2 degrees of negative camber and 1 degree of toe
out hooks up very well, and I wouldn't change back..... ever.....
Graeme.
Also, I may be selling my wagon, as I have another project that will consume a lot of
time and money.
E-mail me if you are interested.

Out of curiosity, why dont more people go for the wagons for drag
racing, would the solid rear be easier to set up for traction due to
no camber changes?
