Whats the best way to set up the rear skid for speed runs?We want to set up a 98 SRX with a speed track and 96 studs down the middle,and an 02SRX with stock track and 192 studs,offset rear axle kit with 8" wheels,and 5.35 ski-poo idlers in the other six positions.looking for suggestions on how to set up the shocks and limiters for top speed runs.We both hit the trails on occation so we cant set them up with no movement at all in the suspension .thanks-Harvey

Tighten the limiters, loosen front rear shock; tighten rear shock. This gets the approach angle better & will help increase top speed.
 
And how about the opposite setup, full weight transfer?

Or even a happy medium? We do a lot of aggressive trail riding, but stop and race on every field we come to. I need to be able to out race a clutched F7 this year :) I guess the best setup for me would be a setup that handles fine on the trails, but I can stop, adj the transfer rods and hook up strong out of the hole and still have as much top speed as possible.
