Setting up a car for race tracks is different than setting up cars for autocross. Knowing this, for a track car at altitude, would you keep rates at 400 all around?


Again, I think consideration must be given to the bars you run. It's certainly easier to change an adjustable bar than springs at the track so a 400/400 set up would be pretty forgiving. Especially a "track" car. I'd want a but more stability under power at corner exit with a track car than an autocross car. Greater risk there... I just bump cones.
