Competition Engineering Adjustable Drag Shocks
These Competition Engineering adjustable drag shocks offer a 3-way valving system to dial-in the extension/compression ratio needed for any track condition. The front shocks have three adjustable ratios of 90/10, 80/20, and 60/40. The ratios for the rear shocks are 70/30, 60/40, and 50/50. These numbers represent the percentage of force required to extend (first number) and compress (second number) the shock. By changing the settings on the front and rear shocks, you can dial-in the car to raise the front on initial launch for weight transfer, and then settle smoothly for a final charge to the finish line.

Summit Racing™ Drag Shocks and Struts
Summit Racing™ offers drag race shocks and struts for countless vehicles from the 1950s and up. They're available in a variety of styles for front and rear applications—including 90/10, 70/30, and 50/50. A 70/30 strut extends faster than it contracts, meaning faster front-end lift but longer to settle back down. 90/10's will lift your front-end very fast and settle it back down slowly, keeping the weight transferred to the rear tires much longer than the 50/50 models. Order the drag shocks and struts recommended for your racer.
