Default Advice on dropping 2.16 60'.

I went to the track recently, and all three runs I pulled were 2.1's. My suspension is stock, and I had street tires on. I know it will help out alot just to get a pair of dr's, but what suspension stuff can I get to help out also? Obviously I am not looking to do a full suspension setup right now, just a couple of peices at a time. So what would be good to start out with? LCA's first? or maybe the TA, or some drag shocks? I think I am going to get some 275/40/17 MT DR's and a pair of skinnies to start out with. I ran a 12.83 with that shitty 60', so do you think with my mods in sig, and running low 12's w/ a good 60' on drag radials that my rear end wouldnt mind? When should you start getting cautious about your rear? 1.8 60'? 1.7'? Thanks for the help guys, just looking to get this fat guy off the line.

drag radials, LCA's, Torque Arm, Panhard, drag shocks, save money for the suspension and dont worry about the skinnys for right now until you really get up to the track a lot

adjustable QA1 shocks front/rear with 300 spring weight if its a street/strip car. remove the front sway bar and get some dragradials. this is the best budjet way to start.
