I'm not sure about a dragstrip application, but they really help keep axle/spring wrap to a minimum on lifted trucks, especially if they use lift blocks in the rear.
Take from it what you will...

If you are going to use ladder bars on a leaf spring vehicle, you must use an axle floater or the suspension will bind. Unless you are running in the mid 10 second range, don't waste your money.
