Default 2 way suspension settings for street use...

Guys, those of you that have two way (or +) damper systems on cars that are still streetable, what settings are you using for comp and rebound for the street use part??

I know I have to work out the settings for track use to my driving style and will do so this season.

But for the (minimal) street use I'd much rather just set the same up without too much thinking or tinkering.

All recs/experiences welcomed. TIA!

I know this doesn't help, but I just keep the track set up for the street. Because...it's the street, i just cruise so to not get the attention of the police. Once you get to the track, take stuff out of the car and your ready to hammer down.

Same here. Half the fun is not having to think too much....Arrive, drive, then cruise home.

I used to go one click from full soft on all settings on my 3-ways for street driving. Was really pretty comfortable that way. Was funny you could tell the dampers had a hard time controlling the spring when they were set that soft. Got some weird movements out of the car on the street at those settings.

That lasted about one season before I got tired of crawling all over the car to do it and then forgetting to set it back for the track when I got there.

Just leave it on track settings full time now.
