Generally, I'd say look more into how you're driving, your line, etc and less about your setup. If it's a smooth surface where you race, a bit stiffer than the street with your coilovers helps. The more cracks and bumps, the softer you want it.
Ultimately, tuning your coilovers for bound/rebound, swaybar settings, etc is only going to net you small amounts of time and would be for the more experienced. Just focus on driving for now.

I purchased the car as is and unfortunately not feasible for me to remove the parts and go back to stock to qualify for DS prep. Thanks for the advice, I will stay focused on improving ad a driver first.
