My current Formula suspension are Strano/Koni 4/4. Would I be better off with stock springs/CE 3 way in the back?

Im about to pick up a 02 Z28 6sp that will most likely get the track oriented suspension.

The Formula is back alive and she feels strong, I still need to get the trans cooler mounted right and install the trans temp gauge.

I am now at 3000lb on the scale with 3/4 tank. Super happy with it so far, I'm guessing 50lb less with 1/3 tank giving me 3100lb race weight.

I still have to change some for more reduction.

LW battery
Panhard brace
Rear seat and trunk metal
Hatch sound deadening
Plastic bucket seats and 5pt harness
ABS and module

I think I'm going to cut it close to get 3000lb rw. Im holding off on K member and tube suspension.

Yes, it's missing the TA spoiler. It's filling in the name, DookieBird

Thanks man, she's definitely a consistent car at the track. Hoping to find some bracket racing in the area.

Shes stuck at 12.6x @109! Even with good DA, Getting the LQ9/LS3 put together mated with a 3600 stall then save up again for the rear.
