My rear setup for the 2006 worlds track, which is fairly high grip, is 40 shore rear tires, 30K 4 gear diff, 3mm droop, 5mm ride height, gold springs, 3 x 0.8mm hole pistons, 50wt shock oil, black swaybar set on the outer linkage hole, shocks layed down. Thats a fairly typical rear setting (look at Haras setups) for any track you would consider "high grip".
You have a good point. I was going on the assumption that his grip wasn't as good as he was thinking it was. If the traction really is good, it could also be too soft springs causing the chassis to bottom.
