shock setup

so i got another pic from the last wknd at the track. its definately not lifting the front end until the arms on the lock up start coming in. i have to run this much weight in order to run nitrous or it will slip on the big end.
with a stock shock, how should i have the compression damping set? its at full hard right now, and i believe thats a problem...

launch pic, clutch lever is out



out by the tree




thinking about trying higher gearing also, even though its 1 down 3 up now....which seems pretty tall for the 1/4

Scott, part of the problem is, like I told you on the phone, getting a stock shock, with stock valving, to work, at your wb, will be hard...., I had huge issues with it, and the link pro helps, but does not fix everything......,

Looks like it needs some preload out.......
