Default New GT2 coil overs from LG, now what? What starting point?

Have a C6 and putting on the new GT 2 coilovers from LG. They have 12 settings on them, from soft and then 12 clicks to hard. What's a good starting point for a track day this sat at TWS? We're putting them on tonight and tomorrow I'm going to get it corner weighted. Maybe I should try it out in middle and go from there? Or maybe just jump in at full hard? wadda ya think? chuck

I used the middle (setting 6) and that was where I ended up after playing around. 6 front and 6 rear was what worked for me.

Give us a call if you need more info.

Thanks Lou, I gotta tell ya, they look absolutely fantastic, to good to go on my track car! What a dream for my purposes for my C6, I track it, done everything but motor mods so it's ultra reliable and now I can go from hard to soft with a twist of the ***.
Bunch of us get together and take a cross country trip somewhere every year, this year we are staying in Watkins Glen. By coincidence I saw your post a few weeks ago about your going try out your new ALMS car at the Glen the same weekend we are there. Called trackmasters and the rest is history, see you there.
So here I'm driving with coilovers set on soft for long cruise and I'll get out early before track day and stiffen them up for the track, perfect! Truly using corvette for dual purpose. chuck
