i will be honest, i have seen droop measured so many different ways that have different out comes that i would prefer to keep it out of the equation for now (also im under qualified to get it right lol)
Hi Serpent guy,
Droop is very important as this will effect how much weight is over the rear wheels either on power or off power.

Place the car on a setup board push the suspention in the front and rear down a few times then holding the rear wheels down lift the shock tower to see how much droop you have. There is no correct droop measurement every driving style is different i run very little droop like 2mm up travel front and back.

The rear diff to way to thick oil.
I'm running 800cst Xceed on medium grip asphalt even thinking about 600cst!!!!

One more question did you mention you have 50k shock oil as in 50000cst shock oil???
