Default what shocks

Ill be using C6Z06 leaf springs and Jonny O bars on my 07' Z51.
What shocks would match this setup? Im currently considering DRM Bilsteins. I don't really care about streetablity I just want a fairly neutral and "flat" car on track/auto-x
Thanks
Chris

I've run DRM and Johnny shocks on my stock Z06 and think the Johnny shocks are a little faster.

Track or Auto-x? Would it even matter?

auto-x. suspect it carries over.
If I were drag racing I'd go DRM. They seem to have better wheel hop control but both better than stock.
You said it does not matter to you but the DRM had a better ride on the highway.
