QA1 shocks
Anyone tried the QA1 double adjustable (bump & rebound) shocks.
I am considering two for the front for adjustibility at the drag strip. Have '04 Z06 shocks all around now.
They should also be nice for hiway driving by setting a little softer than the Z06 shocks.
Not cheap - Summit gets $357 per shock.

I thought about going from the single to the double until I priced them. I found them for $339. still too much

I see in your signature you use QA1 shocks - front or all four?
Where do you set them for drag racing?
I run a 6.99 heads up class at two different country 1/8 mile drag strips that do not hook and I need a tenth in short time. If I have to bite the bullet and buy these shocks I will if I know they will help.
400 rwhp - A4 - 4.10 - 3800 stall - CCWs w/ MT Streets - Z06 shocks
Car has low 60' time of 1.48 in 1000' air and low to mid 1.5x in 2500' to 4000' air at good tracks. Best I can muster at these two tracks is mid 1.6x by adding 100 lb. ballast and a full tank of gas, the extra 180 pounds is defintely detrimental to my cause.
Any help will be appreciated.
