ACR's do come in 750 lb springs, at least all 1999 ACR's did with the Koni 2812 Racing shocks. I guess if you want it be a "stock suspension" for the later ACR's, you'll have to keep the 1100 lb rear springs that came with the Dynamic shocks.

Try setting your front shocks to full soft on rebound and full stiff on compression. The rears should be the other way around. Regardless, any ACR set up is not ideal for drag racing, the car was designed with road racing in mind.

If you have a buddy running BFG drag radials, barrow it for a few passes and it should bring you in the high 10's. Or if it's already available, try the M/T drag radials.
