Okie dokie, first step would be to start with baseline shock settings in the middle, go test with "just" shock adjustments & take very detailed notes every change, every "run".

You didn't say if your double adjustable shocks are compression & rebound adjustable or if both adjustments are for rebound (low speed & hi-speed piston travel).

If they are compression & rebound adjustable, do this:

a. Soften the compression on the fronts until you get the car "loose on entry" when braking & turning ... or until you run out of adjustment.

b. Stiffen the rebound on the fronts .. and see how much better the car turns "mid-corner" when you're "rolling or coasting" with no brakes or throttle. Also pay attention to what it does to the rear tire grip on corner exit. It will get looser. Note the settings when it does.

c. Stiffen the compression on the rears as long as it helps the car turn on entry & middle ... or until you run out of adjustment.

d. Soften the rebound on the rears until you get the car "loose on entry" when braking & turning ... or until you run out of adjustment.

---------------------------

Then ...

e. Stiffen the rebound on the rears to see if will provide you with more grip on corner exit. Pay attention to when it affects grip on entry & middle.

f. Soften the compression on the rears to see if will provide you with more grip on corner exit. Pay attention to when it makes the car tighter or pushy on entry & middle.

g. Stiffen the compression on the fronts until you get the car to push on entry and/or middle ... or until you run out of adjustment. You'll be able to drive in deeper & brake harder, but pay attention to the middle as it gets tighter or pushy.

h. Soften the rebound on the fronts .. and see how much better the car grips on corner exit as you roll the throttle on. Also pay attention to when the push comes back or gets worse in the middle. If it starts to push on exit ... stop.

Please do these in this order & take lots of notes. You won't be able to remember all the details accurately. I don't know any top race teams that don't use "run sheets" to keep track of changes, results, etc.

Then, post a report of each run, with all 4 shock settings, the handling results on corner entry (braking & turning), Middle (coast) & Exit (throttle roll on & steering unwind) ... and the differences from the previous run.

You'll learn first hand what changes do ... I'll guide you on what every thing means to us from what you post ... and people following along can learn & share their experiences too.
