Re: Height?

I've run my car on gravel access roads when it was lowered but I always had to keep total attention and slow down a lot when big rocks and uneven road came up. With only a one inch drop the car would take the terrain better and I didn't have to worry so much about bottoming out. If you look at most true Rally cars the suspension is not lowered. Some Focus RS Cosworth's look lowered because it appears as though they run bigger rims. A rally car suspension is really strong and built tough. Those cars usually have tons of wheel travel and run rims and tires specifically designed for the terrain of the stage they're running.
