Suspension tips for Drag Racing Okay I am about to put on some weld draglites.....or something to that effect but first I want to get some suspension done. Honestly the car is way too high and I want it to tuck nicely over the mickey thompsons. What shock spring combo should I run? I want it to be as low as possible and launch well. I'm not worried about it being a rough ride....I just want the form and function. Will I need a panhard rod, torque arm, relocation brackets....give it to me gurus!!!

I went with a setup from Spohn.
I have the following:
Lower Control Arms
Relocation Brackets
Panhard Bar
Subframe Connectors
This setup should completely eliminate wheel hop and should give you a real nice launch. The ride quality feels better to me at least. It feels more like it should feel, stiff and precise. You'll feel the bumps in the road but I don't feel them any worse than I did before. It's by far the best mod I've done so far and I highly recomend it. Spohn is a really great quality product for a really good price.
