Default suspension??

I've read before, that if you install aftermarketupper/lower control arms, you don't need your quad shocks anymore. Is this true? Does it hurt if I leave them on there?

Now is that true in both drag racing and road racing?

I'm pretty sure you still need your quad shocks. The only instance I've heard of that eliminated the quad shock is switching your UCAs out for a panhard bar. I could be wrong though

Should you leave it without aftermarket control arms? And what if you only get lowers, do you still take them out?
