Default Koni Adjustables - Setup Recommendations?

Recently received a set of Koni Adjustable Shocks (3013 -1023/1024's) for my 2000 C5. Currently am running Z06 Sway Bars, Z06 springs, with Z06 rims shoed with Kumho 710's for Solo (AutoCross) time runs. Adjustment appears to be a key way that is turned counter clock wise (looking from top of shock down) for "+". What's the best setting for AutoCross only, and for stree/AutoCross combo? Any good sources for additional info?
Thx! Jim

You should end up somewhere near 4 or 5 "sweeps" from full soft with your springs and bar setup.

The usual caveats apply....

Season to taste.....

Your mileage may vary.
