Good to hear. My opinion of 12k Rear is that it is a pretty good rate for the rear, but is maybe a tad on the stiff side. I was having the rear starting to brake loose at chuckwalla which has a lot of high speed sweepers. It wasn't anything too crazy, but it started to skate-was actually kind of fun but not ideal.

I really like the way 12k rear feels in terms of grip and controllability, but I am also wishing I had a wing to keep it planted. I had thought about swapping from 10/12 to 12/10, but I am thinking that more like 15/12 is what I am going to do. My guess is that I might have the same problem in the front once I do that and then require some downforce up there as well.

I would say that overall 10/12 is not a bad setup and is a pretty good stepping stone. However it's not really great either. Front is still to rolly polly, and the rear is actually really darn good, but yeah needs aero to tame it a bit on the high speed stuff.
