If the car is all drag race, then I can see switching to a ladder bar/coil over. If its a street/strip setup, I would recommend going to a Caltrac system (about $750 w/springs, bars, and shocks) which will give you a MUCH better street ride than ladder bars and still provide good traction.

I just don't get it, but first that is a great looking rendering, but it looks so much like a fox body 5.0 rear suspension, and almost every hardcore 5.0 racer is trying everything they can afford to upgrade/change the 4 link system that is nearly identical to the rendering. Why if they are so great? Whenever I pose this question to a manufacturer they usually get a little huffy, like what I just mentioned is a big secret. Then I hear all kinds of reasons why their four link triangulated rear is different, like, color, name, etc. I am not sure if this 4 link is better, but I have yet to be convinced its the greatest if most 5.0 owners dump it quickly when they upgrade. Well?
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
