QA1 Shock Settings?

Where should I set my single adjustable QA1's for a high 10 sec run down the 1/4 mile? Have Nitto drag radials set at 20 psi, ATR 1-3/8" rear bar. 20 psi boost. Ambient temp should be in low 70's.

Conrad are they "R" QA 1 racing shocks or standard QA1's? If they are not and are standard QA 1 shocks I would suggest setting them on the curb they will kill your 60 ft times at any setting. Good luck. Dave
