Ran the US style tack setup this weekend, (rough, big jumps, low-med. grip) it seems to work well overall. On bumpier/rutted tracks it might be a bit on the hard side, but it jumps very well, is quite stable and feels pretty balanced overall. It does seem to lack a bit of low speed steering, although its not that bad you just need to adjust your line a bit. The only change I made was to goto slightly softer oil in the back (40wt to 37.5wt) didn't make a huge difference due to temperature changes from the day before. I was pretty happy with the way it handled since most other guys were running a softer setup. I also ran 2.5 degrees of rear toe instead of 3 degrees. I'll start playing with the setup a bit more now that I'm back to my home track, which is pretty flat, rough, and low bite.
