Default Shocks/Struts to go with Vogtland V6 springs

I installed Vogtland springs on my 06 V6 about 18 months ago. The stock shocks seem to be about worn out, so I am wondering what would be a good, affordable complement to the Vogtland springs.

I've taken my car to the 1/4 mile track once, and am going to be running it on the course at Miller Motorsports park in August. It is my daily driver and so I don't want anything incredibly harsh, and I'm not interested in racing enough to feel like I need adjustable shocks.

This is exactly the sort of situation the Koni STR.T shocks are meant for..... Unfortunately, the Koni sale just ended which had the set @ $415... but they are still not a million bucks @ $459.99 a set http://www.stranoparts.com/partdetai...D=64&ModelID=5

There are cheaper options, like Tokico Blues, but they don't offer the same amount of rebound damping (a bit less composed) and are not build nearly as well/last as long. And when/if you do have an issue Koni is the absolute best if any warranty is required.
