I use 90/10 on my car on the street and find them ok but they do affect the handling of the car so be warned and drive accordingly dont start going on and off the throttle when going round corners as when the front lifts you can get massive understeer

You can buy adjustable rate shocks so you can run them 50/50 on the street and adjust them at the track.

I've had 90/10 shocks on all my cars and provided you don't go flying round corners you wouldn't even notice the differance. They do help with weight transfer at the track as do 6 cylinder torsion bars which I also run. Pete, Kev's and Paul Worrows car are all set up like that and all have excellent weight transfer and sensible road manners.

The Comp Eng. 90/10s need to be fully depressed to alter the valving......Not a 5 minute job at the 'Strip. I also run 50/50 on the back. The car when going over road irregularities at speed just rides flat, when modern things in front of me bounce all over the place. No problem.
