I am building some high horsepower cars and I would love for any hints and tips I could get. Post on here or message me or join my party

Thank you for looking this far guys it’s greatly appreciated! Have a good night!

I can help you with drag tuning, send me an FR
Here’s what you need to know about drag tuning.
0 camber front and rear is not the best but it will work on every car. Bump settings of low low high high are better than stock everytime. Tire pressure should be set to 35psi on your drive wheels for best performance. Roll bar and brake settings hardly matter.
When running race suspension in a rear wheel drive car run your ride heights maxed and your spring pressures all the way down. This will give you killer launches. Set your diff accel ratings at or near 100%. For the full mile only, try lowering the front end and raising the rear all the way for a few extra mph on the top end.
4wd cars like their front end lowered and their ass end raised into the air. Front springs should not be stiff but should be adequate. Usually you can leave the front springs at the stock spring pressure. Lower the rear spring pressure near all the way. Diff accel settings should be at or near 100% with about a 73% rear power bias.
Fwd cars I have no idea.
Here’s some tranny tips. I set my high gear so it almost bounces of the rev limiter when I cross the finish line. Then I adjust first gear until I can launch with much throttle but little tire spin (usually this means lowering the gears value). Align your middle gear or gears so they create a nice curve. Now run the piss out of the car and save the tune. Reload the tune and try a different number of gears. It is important that your new high gear is at the same numerical value as your old high gear. Once you have figured out how many gears work best for your car you can fine tune your middle gears. If the gear seems like it comes in too low, raise its numerical value a little.
Here’s what I know about circuits. If you want your car to react faster to steering input lower the front roll bars value. If your car needs a little more grip at the rear while turning, lower the rear roll bars value and soften the rear springs a lil. Try this before you increase the cars rear downforce. If you need the car to turn a lot harder, run a very stiff rear roll bar and a bit more rear downforce to keep those tires planted. If your car slides out laterally while turning increase front and rear downforce. Tire pressures should be set so that they reach 35psi after a few laps of racing
Hope this helps
