Default Koni/GC?

I was just wondering if anyone uses koni/gc set up for drag? the reason i ask this is because i know koni/gc are great street/autox/track suspension but i want to know if they make spring rates for drag

GC gets their springs from Eibach...so if you wanted 1000 pound springs...I'm sure they could accommodate.

Yes they do. I'm actually planning on running this same combo with 12/18k rates.

I have been running koni and skunk 2 coil overs. They work good I cut 1.6 60 ft times. However there are some limitations that I have noticed, achieving desired spring pre load while maintaining ride hight is hard. I think even a basic full coil over would be a better way to go. Plus it's about the same price. I also have issues with tires hitting fender under breaking cuz the car is so front heavy and the koni all the way on hardest setting is not really enough. Just my experience. Oh I have 10k up front 18k rear.
