Question Ride height

Duz anyone know the stock ride height of a 1990 GT? Where is it measured? I'm gonna be doing some auto x ing this spring and I am starting to (research) pay attention to my suspension. I bought my car already modified and its pretty stiffly sprung, so I have begun to investigate. I realize i'll be running "street prepared rear wheel drive" class.

If you can run street prepared with gears, you're doing better than I am. In my club, and I think SCCA, rear gears put you in "prepared" automatically. You might wanna check that out...

It dosen't really matter, but its basically a "race what you brung" as long as its got DOT tires and rear wheel drive. Not only gears but the motor stuff also, plus ths subframes. No matter i'll step up to where I need to if I enjoy it as much as I do drag racing and I think I will!
