You need to consider that auto cross and circuit setups are different. Springs are easy items to change out. You have no aero. You also need to consider the track

You need to consider that auto cross and circuit setups are different. Springs are easy items to change out. You have no aero. You also need to consider the track surfaces you run on. Bumpy and uneven surface are unforgiving if you spung too stiff. Smooth surfaces you can go stiffer. Do you like running curbs or not. Little things to consider. I would start were the majority do and then make adjustments as you get better and have a better idea of what might work best for you.

yes i see. I mostly run streets of willow and button willow but mostly 80% towards buttonwillow. Button willow is an amazing track, pretty smooth as you know yourself im sure lol. only bad part on the track is riverside and you have to avoid a couple curbs cause the car gets squirrelly over some curbs anyways. but i feel like there are some curbs (bus stop, phil hill, the esses) that love being eaten even with high spring rates. correct me if im wrong. also want to eventually do auto club fontana which is pretty smooth and chuckwalla i heard is great as well

i made the change to 18k front/16k rear, just cause i have the personality to always be like "shoot, shoulda went more" , and i can always get the 16k/14k if i find these too aggressive like you've said before
