does anybody have a good starting point for a SRX700 with 8bu-00 weights for 500 feet? Also what gearing to run for 500 feet?

also is the 51/37 good for drags or for speed runs? this setup is going to be used for drags. I am 100% new to running drags so I'm not sure on setup of suspension either. I know draggers want their sleds to run differently than a speed run sled.
 
THATS A 500 F.T GRASS DRAG SET-UP. BUT LIKE THE 8BU-10 SET-UP I PUT ON HERE, YOU HAVE TO TEST AND NOT TWO SLEDS ARE ALIKE. SO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO IS USE ANY INFO YOU GET AND BUILD OFF IT. NOW I HAVE USED THAT ANGLE FOR BOTH, BUT TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT PRIMARY SET-UPS. 3:16 (yammie tony)

ok do I want to load the heal or the tip of the weights heavier?
Do I want to setup the suspension different for drags than speed runs?
 
you will have to load both holes ,,rear skid Ive set up the same for drags or speed running..
 
I have the 8bu-00 setup with both holes filled with 3.1 grams and right now I'm running heelclickers on Ice and these pull very very good just no race to beat racers up on LOL!
