Default What suspension on a c6 z06

Which suspension setup should I go with for my c6 Z06? I've been looking at the Pfadt double adjustable featherlite coilovers. Is anyone using them? If so how do you like them? Also, which other brands should I look into? I plan on making a purchase here within the next week or so. Car is in the process of being converted to a designated track car.

How much coin you got? As far as coil overs here would be my choice if money were no option.

1) Penske 3 way dual springs
2) Moton 3 way dual springs

If money is a factor, I think the next highest quality coil over is the non adjustable LG Bilstein (their original version). LG used them on his WC for years and won races and championships with them. I am on a budget and picked the LG's and never looked back. Also, I would probably just F up the handling by making adjustments, I just wanted a proven product that I didn't have to touch after installation. Several TT wins later, I am a happy camper.

I actually did a complete package (LG coil overs, T1 bars, and their quiet end links). I also must say I am VERY happy with the quiet endlinks, I had the standard T1 on my C5 and creaking and cracking drove me insane.

I think he is in ST2, I know that is how he was classed when we were at Road Atlanta in June.
