Default whats your street/strip susp set up ?

I am up in the air on what to do with my factory shocks and springs.I want my car lowered and I know the stiff springs do not help at the track.I was thinking about QA1 coil over with the 300 rate spring up front and maybe a Hotchkis or BMR springs in the rear.I have an 01 WS6,3400 midwest stall,DTS 12 Bolt 3.73 eaton posi ,228-236/588-578,114 comp cam,ported/polished factory heads with manley valves,pushrods,etc,mac mids,ory,magnaflow,BMR panhard,control arms,torque arm with poly bushings,strut bar,1 inch spoon rear sway bar . Just about every little mod you can think of is done . I will be running the MT drag radials on my factory wheels also. Any ideas ? What would you do if you drive it on the street mostley and going to take it to track once in a while.Also I am putting down around 430 rwhp and 380 tq.

I have QA1's with V6 springs in the rear. The car looks like it's lowered 1.5". You can get the stance perfect with the coil-over's in the front.

That what I wanted to hear.1.5 drop is about what I want also.What front spring rate are yours ? if you know and where is the best place to buy them. You say the v6 rear spring lowers 1.5 also.Your car has about the same rwhp and tq wonder if I can get low 11,s. No track time yet it does seem pretty quick though.
