    Hotchkis springs worthy of drag racing?

     



    I am currently thinking on gettin some 1-2 inch drop front springs for my 70 nova but would really want them to unload the front weight at the strip on the weekend. I currently have stock springs which I hacked off about a coil to get a good 1 1/2 inch drop. This obviously is not the right way of goin doin it. I think hotchkis is known for their springs and suspension parts that make for great handling purposes but will these springs work well for drag racing too? This car is also my daily driver. Thanks

    If you go with the drag race springs your car is going to be real spooky in the corners . You don't want that especialy in a Nova when they are light in the rear allready. Eibach makes some real nice springs for the little Nova .But you can't have it all , you have to decide which way you want to go . Drag racing spring's or cornering springs?
