So esentially I would like to know what is the prefered ideal set up for drag racing? I plan on using the info for an upcoming r/c drag race with our short course trucks. I figured lighten up the front with the wieght biased towards the rear. Skinny tires in the front, soft slicks rear, and a sealed posi. My question is mainly the shock set up. Limited travel? soft or stiff shocks and springs and so on. Thanks for any info.

Basically the same as a car.. you want to move all the weight to the back you can while keeping control.

Light as possible.
Automatic trans.
Soft front shocks allow weight to transfer rearward.
Lighten even more.
Finaly remove more weight.
