IRS = broken axles which is a big turn off.
When my dad ran in the 70s against Corvettes with his Chevelle in NHRA Super stock they had to run the stock IRS. NHRA let them convert to a solid rear axle for safety reasons they all picked up a 1-2 tenths over him. Wonder what it would be worth on a stock car???
