Happy with Hal shocks?

Are the people with Hal shocks happy with the investment? With the springs this is almost a 500.00 package. I just wanted to make sure they do offer an improvement before I fork over the cash.

I also searched but couldnt find much as far as improvments in 60'.

How much did it help your 60'?

Thanks

Yes, I am happy with these shocks. Sorry I have no 60 foot times to report. But, on nearly the softest setting, these shocks, front springs, prothane bushings in the front, and new BFG G-force KDW tires, my car absolutley hugs the road and turns like a slot car, no kidding. It is unbelievable how different the suspension is now. Very solid and controllable feeling. The car has a hint of understeer, but is superior to stock.

Will hopefully get to dragging the car sometime this year. Still need rear slicks/wheels, helmet, and 5pt harness to go there. I would say I am very close to doing it.

I can say that I found the Hal's to be a subtle improvment over the KYB AGX's I was running before.I picked up a bit in the sixty foot and the shocks offer more adjustability to adjust to some different track conditions that I come across.These are more of a true race shock then the AGX's.
