who's drooping coils(removing preload)?

I've been searching for like 2 hours.. on zilvia, and here. Can't really find ****. Just wondering if anyones drooping their coils, and how they ride/feel??? I maxed out my megan tracks and am not as low as I want to be. Anyone who has experience doing so, please post.

(I F*CKING KNOW THIS IS NOT ADVISED) and kinda don't care..

The ground control spring setup does not use any preload and they seem to do alright. You can add preload so the weight of the car no longer compresses the spring, remove hardware that supports the spring or buy shorter springs. In all these scenarios, don't be surprised when your shocks blow from constantly bottoming out.
