When you do that, the pod will droop (should it be pod-droop? LOL - dude, your pod is drooping. . . .)

So I guess I kinda confused myself. . .

You want your chassis to be just a tad lower than the pod (just a touch of 'sag') which will let it move upward when it needs to transfer weight forward off throttle. . .
when picking up the car at front and rear points their should be no sag.
I have it set so the chassis is level whewn picked up front and rear, and the rear end drooping about 2-3mm when holding just the chassis plate
