Just if anyones interested, ive been playing around with my zero outdoors asphalt with foams(we race them down here) and its really goes well.
Heres my basic setup without getting to indepth..
35 shore front and rear. 30mm rears, 26mm fronts.
13.5 boosted btw.

Rear of car.
Hardest sway bar.(1.5mm I think)
0.5 degree camber
6mm hexes
14 pound spring.
40 weight 3 hole
6mm ride approx

front
1.3mm sway bar
1 degree camber
5mm hexes
17 pound spring
50 weight 3 hole
5.5 ride height
1 degree toe out

The key to foams on a electric tourer on the asphalt seems to be slightly harder springs and slightly lightly damped compared to a rubber setup.
And the hard rear sway bar helps to get the rear to rotate more freely as with 30mm tyres you have a big contact patch.
