Super VXer
Kodiac that is a brilliant setup. What is it a Corvette IRS?Originally Posted by kodiak
“Improve the road manners of the VX.” Ganzman, have you test driven a VX yet?
This is a kit that might work.
You're so right. The last thing that the VX can be accused of is giving a comfortable ride.
Where can someone get a setup like that?

Take a look.Still not as cool as the stock VX rear. But to each his own.

Cars designed by spreadsheets make sense. Cars designed by engineers make history.

So, its not just me? The VX has to be the worst suspensioned car of all time on and off-road. Pitch and roll are the worst. I've tried everything within reason to settle this little beast down. I can't believe it won its class in the 1999 Dakar rally, must have been the only car in that class or it was so modified that it was unrecognizable.
My suggestion is jack up the body and pull another chassis under it, probably the cheapest solution. P.S. The Axiom doesn't have IRS.

I somehat agree as I have most recently experienced some pitch and roll whereas the rear-end wanted to "step-out" on me violantly while traveling at higher speeds on uneven pavement during hard cornering on both city streets and the freeway (shoddy repaired pothole surfaces around corners creating a very bumpy, uneven surface).
At every experience, I was exceeding the posted speed limit and going way too fast for conditions (my fault). As a cure, I've since readjusted my driving habits and slow down appropriately and try to pick a more refined smoother line on the street/freeway as to avoid the bumpy uneven surface. The VX seems to agree with the less aggressive driving style on uneven surfaces.
Consequently, my best advice is to slow down and pick a smoother line while driving. Give it a try, and the VX will thank you.
