Has anyone used the dual bag setup and how did they like it if so?

I ran it orignally with the one bag supplied and it worked great but i was driving it on the street and the springs being as soft as they were when i would make a turn into a parking lot that had a steep curb or entrance the tires would cut. I bought another bag and installed it in the driver side as well. I would pump it up to 40psi each side on the street, and then when I went to the strip i would leave 12psi in the passenger bag which was the sweet spot, and then take the valve stem out of the driver side bag. Was good enough to make a 1.52 60'

Yup, the dual bags are awesome, I drive my car to and from the track with really tall tires on the back to lower cruising RPM.

I still havent gotten the 1.5 60ft I've been looking for, but I know the suspension can do it.
