Because they are too worried about lowering the car or running 20s than actually hooking up and going fast.

You will lose some handling abilities, but what Mustang has those to begin with... Most of the "faster" guys have some kind of Drag suspension... I have the Drag launch kit on my 93 and it 60's alot better then it did with the Eibach lowering springs it had in it when I got it...

The above replies actually are sort of true...

The Drag Launch kit just isnt popular because they have a very tall/soft front spring rating, and are just a little "floaty" for every day driving.

Sure, they'll drive great to the track and back, as good as drag radials, or any other type of drag suspension part. They're not for the daily driver though, in my opinion.


Sincerely,
