yeah, in his defense, the new search engine sucks!
when I raced my street car, I used kyb's and ground control adjustable springs. When i went to the track, I just changed the rear springs to 900lbs. Seemed to work pretty good

Umm...no.

Get a properly valved shock that will do the work, and a spring will aid the shock from there. PM Miller for info and parts, I know he is working on something that will make all those 850 whp cars actually go 9's at least
