Ok heres what I have. Everyone says I need a complete shock package but one guy told me only a LR and RF for a slick track. The shocks I have are absolutely junk so I'm ready to buy a set but don't know where to start. I run a 1/2 mile high banked track. 602 crate class. My car is slightly heavy.
This is our shock rules:
One steel shock per wheel, no external adjustment. No lay down shocks less than 12” from brake rotor.
$75.00 claim per shock. No adjustable shocks, hydraulic or pneumatic weight jacks

I'm seeing a total of 6 shocks not 9 like most people have told me. Any info will be appreciated.

we run under the same rules. only shock we may change is the right front we run a 3c 5r and may go to a 3c 8r if we need it to turn better off

I have learned that there is many different theories as to the combination to a shock package. I like the feel that I have gotten from my TSM shock package and am happy with it! We change the LR shock the most, then every now and then the RF
