Argh, again with the learning... Thanks, though.

Edit: May be giving up on trying to understand damping...

Went through Old Greg's post and don't think anything sunk in. Also been re-reading the chapter on damping in a suspension book I have. Book also contains two handy things.

First is Penske's flow-chart for damping adjustments.

Second is Koni's process for shock setup.

So damping solution for me: Leave it stock for a while, save up for some good Koni ($$$$$) double adjustable rear dampers/front strut inserts, give Koni all info needed to recommend base valving, make strut housing to fit, install, follow Koni's setup advice, when at track follow Penske's flowchart for handling issue resolution.

So the wallet will be hurting, not the brain...
