Default competition engineering 3-way drag shocks

I just purchased competition engineering 3way adjustable drag shocks for my 2001 z28 m6.

I was wondering was has these shocks, or used them?
What to you think about them?
what setting did you find to be best for drag, and for street? (50/50, 60/40, 70/30)?

I was thinking about using either 50/50 for street and adjusting properly per track for drags.


Thanks everyone!

i got them and one of them was locked up so I had to send them back to summit.And by the time I got them back and put them on at 50/50 setting I only got to use them for one night before I broke my rear and trans.They seemed to give better weight transfer and made my 60 ft more consistant but no huge improvements. I wish I would of waited and bought better shocks after getting a bad one first off.I didn't realize how big of a pain they were to adjust when they are in the car(because you have to take them all the way out to adjust them).But all in all they made me more consistant and that alone was worth 80$ if your into bracket racing.You would be better off asking this question in the drag racing tech forum,that is where I found most the info on them.

I have them and the 70/30 setting works good and seems to not affect street driving.
