It has worked dry and slick in crate car. Would it work in super or just fade under the power, especially in the slick?

it's personal preference really, has there been races won in supers on that RR? Sure, but personally I hated it and would only do that in certain conditions and after some other adjustments.

Remember a 200# spring on one car may be like a 150 or 250 in another car due to motion ratio, birdcage design, bar angles, etc. So hard to compare spring rates if your dealing with different cars or modified cars.

Now a days, I wouldn't run a soft RR spring in the slick but don't mean it can't be done. I've said it before there really isn't a right or wrong answer to many of these things, there are just different ways to go about something and likely can be made to work with enough time/work.
