Default Adjustable Shocks

I have some rear 3-way adjustable comp engineering shocks and of the 3 settings (70/30, 60/40, 50/50) I was wondering which setting would be most benefical on the track and street for straightline performance

Most people set them to 50/50 and have fairly good success with them.

50/50 should work the best for you. I have had a few of my buddies cut mid to high 1.3 60fts on this shock on the 50/50 setting.
