Amen. Double Amen. Sing it to the heavens, my brotha!!!
Race car suspensions aren't really that enjoyable on the street. No doubt it's cool to take freeway off-ramps at triple their rated speed, but the rest of the time a twitchy, tire-wearing, bone-rattling, NVH on steriods ride will just annoy and tire you out.
Make your shocks adjustable, keep your caster and camber at reasonable levels, don't go for too-quick steering, and use bushings with some compliance.
