Current best 60' is 1.71, launching at redline and slipping the clutch.
If I don't slip the clutch I'll sping and end up with a 1.8xx 60'.
I run 26x10.5/15 ET Streets at ~10psi.
4.56 gears, rest of mods are in sig.
I want to be able to dump the clutch and not spin.
I know I need a lot of front suspension work, so I'm looking for more advice.

I want to stay under $1,000 and the further the better!
Things I've certainly decided on: full length subframes and lighter battery.

Setups to consider:
A:
QA1 Full Tubular Front incl 12 way adj struts $1000
Stock rear
-60+ lbs

B:
AJE K Member uses stock struts/springs LMM 329
Front Struts Strange 222
Drag Springs front & rear Steeda 210
Drag shocks rear 200
-30+ lbs
total $961

C:
AJE K Member uses stock struts/springs LMM 329
Front Struts Strange 222
4 cyl Fox springs used 30
Stock rear
-30+ lbs
total $581

D:
AJE K Member + A arms uses stock struts/springs QA1 (REDLINE RACING) corral.net 425
Front Struts Strange 222
4 cyl Fox springs used 30
Stock rear
-50+ lbs
total: $677


All other setup suggestions welcomed!
Does anyone use Strange 10-way adjustable struts?
They look like an awesome deal at $111 each.

For drag racing, what does going to coil-overs up front accomplish?

Thanks!

Well, dont know if this would help as much as you want, but what is the traction difference in the ET street and the ET Drag. Dont know, but worth a shot. BTW Awesome car, anything that only have 4.56's and suspension work that runs a 12.6 is amazing, good work man.

Just saw that it was a Mach, but nonetheless VERY impressive.
