Matt,
Some may say not , but yes its worth the hassle. U and I have similar combos. After setting up my Metcos with the IC brackets and HR Parts airbags spacers i got my best 60fts so far. At Bristol I was able to get low 1.6s on the foot brake and mid 1.4s on the transbrake.With some more rear brake tweeaking im sure i can bang 1.5s on the foot brake. Of course this is with slicks. Although this may not sound stellar to many, this is the absolute hardest my car has launched using either method.
