Default coilover questions!

So im setting up my kw v3s to the recommended setting supplied by kw to start off with has anyone set up their car for drag racing or auto cross? i was wondering what different settings people are using. Do I stiffen or soften the back for drag racing and do it adjust the compression or rebound? Do I even it out more for autocross?

This is my autocross setting:
Front

Rebound- 3 clicks out
Bounce- 3 clicks out


Back
Rebound- 13 clicks out
Bounce- stock


You kind of just have to change the settings until you find what works for your car. You will want to soften the rear for drag racing to get more traction. If you get traction with it stiff, then you don't need to adjust it
