Guys run them like that at the track, and put everything around the middle for street driving. Guys usually find loose going up, and not tight coming back down uncomfortable. I have to run mine tight on compression to keep it from bobbing up & down when it lands. If yours doesn't wheel stand you are likely to run it full loose on extension to get it to hook.

Thank you
I am naive - I do NOT want to wheel stand as I'm a total newbie. I guess with 350 H/C/I I am safe keeping it on the ground? I suppose it would be prudent to foot brake it at first climbing RPMs each time and see what happens.

Most H/C cars won't wheel stand anyway. Your probably safe. :-)
