Does anyone know a good setup for a 996 regarding compression/ride height etc. I want it to drop in a bit quicker, but dont know if the rake adjustment is a good idea. The back end feels a bit "soggy" although that may be the 16stone of arse riding it.

if you have showa front and rear then i have a complete set of settings in my file from when i had mine set up for "fast road" by hm racing in orpington.

email me at dibblecorse@hotmail.com and i'll send them over.

the only missing setting is the ride height, u2u skidlids for that

it depends who you booked on your trackday with, organisers like focused events have people such as race lab who attned and are suspension set up peeps. they charge about 40quid and will make some improvments for you.

although the best help would probably come from within the club, so if you attending the dsc day you will need to find out who is attending in terms of suspension set-up. the guy who did my 916 on the last dsc day did an awsome job , can remember who it was off hand but was from the west counrty exeter type region. and it was only 20quid
