I called qa1 this morning and he said to set the front soft to 1-2 clicks and the rear to almost its stiffest setting. Said it will raise the front and stop the rear from hardly squatting or rebounding so it will plant and drive the tires into the track

Tested the car tonight with a stiffer rear and she hooked pretty good on the crappy track! Pretty sure she would dead hook on a good prep track
