Default Ideas for HAL QA1 settings....

I have a '96 A-4 LT1, this will be my first time at the track with the HAL QA1 shocks installed. I'll have my stock wheels on w/Bridgestone Potenza RE-730's. Any ideas where I should start my initial settings, i.e. 0-1 front, 4-5 rear???
TIA! :cheers:

Turn the fronts down all the way. For the rears start in the middle settings and firm it up if it squats too much.

The fronts all the way loose and the rears start in the middle. the middle on the Q1s are much stiffer the the OEM shocks.
