Ran proline suburb supersofts on this moist hard packed dirt track that was somewhat smooth. Worked great. Had ion clays on for first couple laps and I didn't like them so I put the suburbs on. Also didn't have the vents cut out yet on the flotek body so that might help with the nose diving next time too.
And I already mentioned it once, but remember, THIS WAS MY FIRST TIME lol.

You looked really good. No worries about it being your first time. If you hadn't told us we probably wouldn't have known.
As was previously stated, adding weight to the rear may make your nose-down issues worse. In my opinion (and a lot of other folks) the frequent nose-down off of jumps is being caused by rear chassis slap. LOTS of different setup information out there to help with that (Springs/Pistons/Oil/Ride Height). What has worked for me is the 8x1.3 pistons with yellow springs and 32.5 Associated oil.
