Ok so I heard that lowering your car actually hurts you from the line in a race because of weight transfer. Is this true?
unless you to to an extrem where your hitting your bump stops it is more the spring rate that gets you. if ya want to drag race you can get drag springs that will lower the car and help you hook.

i have eibach pro kits on my 03 and theyre pretty nice. i wouldve liked a lower drop, but without having to pay for camber kit and new shocks/struts they give a good stance and drop. i didnt really notice any difference in ride quality except maybe a little rougher going over speedbumps. i dont go to the track often so i cant really say about helping or hurting off the line. link below was taken day after i got it lowered. hope any of this helps.

Here is a link to my gallery if you're interested. I have Steeda Sport Springs on my '98 GT vert. Great handling. I changed my struts and shocks (Tokico) at the same time since everthing was basically apart anyway. I also added Ford Racing rear upper control arms that help the rear handle even better yet.
