Finally watched the video. Good work.

It was really good to hear about 1way vs 2way, external res. etc. I'm looking in this price point and I have noticed these option differences. However I certainly fall into the 90% bracket of people that aren't at an 'engineer level' of suspension theory/knowledge. I'm more of a try this setting, see if its better or worse, then try another. 2 ways, I've heard some horror stories of trying to get them right.

Regarding making the system more track orientated..
It was touched on a little, but not in any real detail. Changing spring rates sounded like the suggestion. Is it as simple as just ordering them with 10k or 12k springs, and the shock can work with that spring rate?

I'm on rsr coils with 7kg springs, and while a great dual purpose system, its gotten to the point now where they're not as track orientated as I would like. And I have found the 7kg spring rate too soft on budget semi slicks (achilles 123) so have not even bothered using a nt01/r888 yet.
