Default Suspension Help

Shocks and springs on my car are almost gone... I building my car mostly for drag strip use, little street. What would be the best setup to get or parts that I would need? Shocks,springs, swaybars, bushings, so on. Thanks

From what i hear, QA1's are the best shock/spring set up for strip. Also other parts such as LCAs, Torque Arm, etc.

QA1's are the way to go for a drag setup. The other suspension parts will be needed to hook better such as LCA's, torque arm, etc... Go for an adjustable torque arm to help on traction. Many people take the sway bar off when they want a drag setup.
