I would like to know if someone has had enough time in an 01/02 ACR to know what the best set up is for the adjustable shocks ?? I have my 02, and love it, and I have not messed with the settings, but if someone has a combination that works for noticable better handling, I would be all for adjusting mine.

I know this probably cant be answered until after this racing season, but someone had to be racing these cars LAST year. ???

Please, any help would be appeciated.

If someone has a ROAD system configuration they like, and then a RACE (as in road course) SET UP, then please list them both.

Thank you.

i haven't had mine on the road race track yet. but i found that the way it came out of the factory was [******] near perfect for the street. the factory settings had the compression dampning backed all the way out to the softest settings front and rear. i can see why because the springs all ready are so stiff. with that said the only rebound adjustment i had to make was to the front. i was getting the pogo effect, so i adjusted it 4 clicks and now everything is perfect. i would assume for the road race track [******] near maxing your compression dampning out and adjusting your rebound accordingly would be the way to go. since the rear spring rate is rather high i would give the front a little more compression dampning than the rear. this of course is assuming you are using slicks and have track experience like me. more negative camber in the front and wider rims and tires in the front will be utilized too.

I'd leave the bound/rebound settings alone, and just have the car lowered no more than an inch just to be safe.
