What Hal spring for street use? What spring is best suited for street use. The car will be raced every once in a while at the 1/4 mile...but mostly driven on the street when the weather is nice, and when I feel like going fast. It is not a daily driver and will not be autocrossed or roadraced.

300 lb' ers....they are probably the "happy medium" aren't they? I don't want an all out drag spring...but do not want it to ride like **** cuz I bought the spring for road racing and autocrossing.

Ya thats why I went with them Iwanted something that would work well at the track and not be to soft for street. Also installed bmr k member and lower a arms lost alot of weight . but still rides great.

Can't you tighten the qa1's up, so that the car will be stiffer? I don't auto-x my car, but I am into handling, taking turns fast...but, I also want the car to be able to launch decently..would the 300's be good for what I want? Have tubular front end as well, and BMR sway's front and rear..so the car should be decently stiff already.
