Most drivers will stick with one size piston (the piston size differs between drivers) and just change the shock oil accordingly. Changing pistons every time you go to a different track is a bit needless with such small increments of oil weight available. I personally go with larger hole pistons to help avoid packing since our local track has many small high-frequency bumps which can induce packing, then I simply adjust oil weight according to how the car feels on track after practice runs. Don't be tempted to use someone else's setup until you've tried to make your own; especially since track conditions can vary greatly between someone's local clay track and your own.
