1. I'm assuming the ability for the driver (myself) to sense increase in rates soon after engaging the bumpstop. before the first half inch of compression. Then, you have the next half inch of compression where it gradually increases, letting the suspension ride on the next half inch under heavy cornering loads. The more gradual increase in force will give the driver more control than if it suddenly increases.
2. The lower initial rates will allow the damper and springs to do more of the work the first inch of compression. I'm counting on the dampers and springs to do a better job on road surface irregularities than a rubber foam tube can.
This is all hypothetical... I think I found the next modification I'm doing to my suspension.

I'm interested in hearing how this works out, keeps us posted. What suspension setup do you have now?
