Well drag suspension is close to road course. They both have stiff rear and a little softer front(this keeps from understeer and at the strip improves front wheel traction) So the only advantage a "drag" setup would have over you is ride height and camber angles maybe a little caster. But you should be good. The only thing that may get in your way is a big sway bar in the front. Just think about the physics.

And this applies to mainly Fwd.

Plus you're a hot chick. haha That helps

Its two days, and its all day long both days, not like a normal test and tune which is 4-5 hours. This is 12 hours each day.

Just remove the front sway bar for the track. Thats your "drag" setup

Wanna hit some backroads with me sometime?
