4Lin adjustment for quicker reaction times

Guy's i'm starting with small stuff first and first week end out we messed with tire pressure setting them up to 8lbs. next I was thinking of stiffing the rebound on the shocks. I had these replace 2 years ago and the car rescaled and he put them at a mid way starting point. any suggestions?

If you go tnt shock valving settings just make sure that the shocks are all you change during the whole night. Pick an air pressure number, jetting, shift point, (etc, etc) & stay there on all passes.

If you have time to make a bunch of passes & start out making only one shock valving click/sweep change per pass, stay with one click/sweep change per pass for all passes. If track time/hours is limited & you decide to be more aggressive & adjust 2 clicks/sweeps per pass, again stay with the same jump in clicks/sweeps for all passes.

If your goal is to first test tighter & tighter extension/rebound settings, first make a baseline pass (or 2) at the current setting. Then tighten the extension 1 or 2 clicks/sweeps each pass until you either reach full-tight, or it flat-out spins or shakes. After you have gone as tight as you can on the extension settings, (and if you have time) you could back off the extension & see what effect looser settings than the baseline will have.

Don't forget to keep detailed notes of what happens with each pass/change.

These thing have like 30-32 different setting per knob. I just counted these while turning it counter clock wise and counted the clicks. Then returned them and counted them clock wise to get an idea what the base setting are. I might go 3-4 clicks stiffer on the rebound and see how things go. We will likely get 3 test runs before we race at the JUNE DIVISIONAL here in Colorado. I'm looking for reaction as we race super comp and turn these things off .100 seconds in the run. I have my last race as a base line for now

Don't know why but I was thinking you had Strange shocks with less settings to choose from.
