${top_text_ad} Hi Don, I typically remove clamps on slippery tracks. By removing clamps I am allowing more body lift. Adding clamps on the rear segments will cause less body lift and the car will squat more. Also, it is important to note that the clamps on the rear segments allow the leaves to slide back and forth but does not allow them to separate. Adding or removing clamps in conjunction with adjusting tire pressure and stiffening / loosening shocks will allow your car to run on variety of track conditions. Remember that all cars behave differently and these are guidelines to follow. It is important to try different settings, and talk to fellow MoPar drivers at the track to find out what is working for them.
