    Unfortunately there's no real compromise between lowered and great drag racer launch.

    Lowered is designed to keep the car from as little movement as possible. Drag launches need a lot of front to rear movement to create rear traction.

    That's where the adjustable shocks can help out, making the fronts stiff and the rears soft. Coilover springs would help with that even more.

    They do make a wide line of product. What exactly do you run all the way around?

    Agreed but I'm telling you fools, a lot of the adjustable shocks will lower your ride height. It just depends what springs you've got.
