I was going to stand the rear shocks up a hole but in my last qualifier I clipped the barrier and pulled the thread out of one of the top links and didn't have a spare.

Should I stand the rear shocks up a bit or would you go up a spring rate??

Thanks
Before you stand the shocks up, do what a_main_atendee sugegsted, lengthen the rear camber link, i'd start w/ the #4 hole on the inside (middle inner) and the B hole on the hub carrier and tune from there, you may have to move to the a hole on the hub carrier if you find that you come loose on sweepers or entries to turns.

I'm going to test out raising the rear roll center later this week, i'll try to report from the track how it does.
