Default Drag launch springs

Does anyone here have "drag Launch" springs. If so how well do they handle in the corners?? I want to know, because I will more than likely be drag racing my civic a little, not auto-x'ing, but i still want to be able to handle well on the street.

I just dont want to sacrifice my handling to be able to launch well, because it will still be a daily driver. I plan to do some dragging on the weekends.

Thanks

DO NOT put these springs on a daily driver!

You are going to put those on the rear of your car. They are supper stiff. I am guessing you have some fairly soft springs in front of your car...

This will make your car very tail happy. You will wreck.

Ok, thanks. I was afraid that they would be a sort of "track-only" setup. I guess I will just have to get some regular lowering springs.

Thanks!!!
