Only drag strip? Do you ever handle with it? If you don't handle with it, you got the wrong springs. You'll want Koni shocks with those springs if you are using the springs as intended. If you set the shocks (especially the rears) correctly, they will still be good at the drag strip, though not the best.

Strano springs and Koni shocks are awesome for handling and good at the drag strip.

A drag setup (soft and not really too low, with a bigger rear swaybar and sometimes without a front bar at all) is great at the drag strip but beyond horrible for handling.
