Stock springs in the back?

I was wondering since I lowered my car with DMS springs if it would benefit me any to put my stock springs back on for the strip since it only takes like 20 minutes to do it! Thanks!

Oh yea if anyone has any drag radials for sell let me know!

Probley not. A big part of traction is proper weight transfer. You may have more travel in the rearend, but your lowered front end will not have that much travel. Hence the weight will not transfer very well.

But for only 20 minutes to switch them out, why not do an experiment. Make 4 passes on lowered rear, then 4 passes on raised rear. Try to remain consistent. Maybe you can shave a little time off your 60ft.
