You got some issues their chief. Might want to adjust them things or have them dyno'd. Just a thought.

Be sure and look at the areas of the shaft that have dirt on them and not the bumpers location. Hitting a bump once could bottom out the bumper and give a false measurement. The part not covered with dirt or dust is a better representation of travel.

I second the motion, better dyno the bars if you have alot of time on them?,(dont reverse rotation) step up a size?, make sure you have adiquet shock lengths?, check ride height? , proubly the best information will be from your chassis manufacture, get a base settup to the track your having difficulty with,

if the problem continues have the driver loose some wieght, or keep the car on the track, dont read your idicators if something stupid is happening? . A airborn car could cause this, lol, no seriously ,goodluck
