Default What's the best front shock/spring setup for drag racing?

I want to be able to just swap the whole assembly ( shock/spring ) for when I go to the track. What brand and model would you guys recomend? I was looking at the 12 way QA1's but heard a 90/10 shock is best and the QA1's are not.

The QA1's are offered as a 90/10 too, I believe that is the "R" series. For drag only, the 90/10s would be better to keep the fronts from bouncing back up on the rebound after lifting the front as you're going down the track. Springs I couldn't tell ya. I know no one really likes the Hal/QA1 springs for the street becuase they are too soft and the car bottoms out alot.

Would there springs be good for the track though? I plan on running the stock stuff on the street. Thanks
