Reply to "single vs double adjustable shocks"

I am not an expert on this but suffice it to say that there is no right answer to this question. How you drive (on or off track, smooth roads or back pot-holed roads, within the speed limit or taking sweepers at 100+ at night) -all play heavily into this question. If anyone says they have the answer they are only telling you what has worked for them, which is fine. Critical to answering the spring rate is knowing what shocks you are running, they need to be matched. Your best bet is to call the person who manufactures the shock and tell them about your intended use, then they can give you a reasonable recommendation for spring rate.

As for the above question I think you really need to be able to shake the car down with a repeated handling situation (racetrack) to get the benefit of double adjustables, many racers start with single on their race car until they've figured out their car, then upgrade to double adjust later.
