Running 20k in the tubes...would going to 25 or 30 be speed carrying benifitial in the corners on our tracks?...or do I risk losing traction?

Hey Jeff,

If you wanted the 18 to feel the same as your 17, then yes adding a few spacers under the front of the shock would make it similar.

I think in 17.5 going a little harder on damper tube fluid is beneficial. I ran 30K the last time I was running 17.5. Modified, I generally stick to 10-20K so it doesn't square off corners too hard.
