Both! You want the rear to either squat down and stay
there or not squat at all depending on your setup. And
you want the front to jump up and stay there. This helps
with the weight transfer to the rear wheels. It has been
years since I worked with this but if memory serves me
right, we used 30/90 shocks on the front. I think I remember
that has 30% resistance on the way up and 90% resistance
on the way down. This kept the front end up passed the
60 foot mark.

All --

I'll be drag racing my car this summer (72 Mach 1).  Just wondering, what
is more important, the ratio of the rear shocks or the ratio of the front
shocks as far as how the suspension will react?

Thanks!

Jay
