Droop and ride height need to be considered together when making adjustments. It's one of the most common mistakes by new racers, who either use the droop screws to adjust ride height (completely wrong), or keep on adding ride height with the shock collars until the car is jacked up on its suspension with no droop and pre-loaded springs.
Oooohhh so that's what you mean. No offence or anything but I actually knew what you explained to me already. I got confused and thought you meant something else in the earlier post. But still, thanks alot tho
But yea admittingly that's what I used to do
