What rear suspension should i go with

Ok im having a problem... when ever i hit a bump however minute there is a loud (outside the car) knocking noise.. This would be my shocks i am assuming im not a suspension expert but thats what i think.

Also i need advise as to how to get my power to the ground instead of in the form of my tires spinning all the way through 1st gear since i just tranfered my a4 to m6..

What shocks should i go with and what else will get my power to the ground. this by the way on my street car but will be visting the track often...

thanks
james

check out some QA1 products i have some friends running them in stangs and 4thgens and love them , not cheap though

as far as ur suspeion goes i say get a
Ebaich drag launch springs
QA1 rear shocks
spohn adj. lca's w/ relocation brackets
spohn adj. panhard rod
if that doesn't do it and that should--

isay get some slicks and a beefer rear to match.

this is for a dragf launch setup-

I'm running Spohn's LCA relocation kit, T5 trailing arm kit, and adjustable panrod bar. I'm very happy with them. I have also had great results with Global West products in other projects.
