Bag it. Only way you can slam it that low and keep it driveable. BAgs wouldnt be to bad on it either since it appears to be a drag car you'll have tons of adjustibility

i wouldn't drop it that much even if it is a drag car... i would be affraid of clearance issues and more than anything the back tires getting cut by the back fenders when it slams down during launch... just my 2 cents..

Car: too many ...
You could use weight jacks and custom height springs to get that low but your exhaust setup looks like it hangs pretty low so IMO thats the factor that will hold you back from dropping it as low as you want. My Z28 sits at about the height in the pic #2 maybe 1/4 or 1/2 inch higher and it is still streetable although I do not have a low hanging exhaust. Air Ride would be the ultimate but if you cant afford it (like I couldnt) then the weight jacks are a winner. You also get to specify what spring rates you want when you order those springs. If you want more info on the weight jacks try a search I made a pretty good post in the suspension forum.
