Spring rate help?

Absolutely 100%. And like I said, these numbers sure as hell don't teach you how to drive or win anything for you. But what they are useful for is tuning.

But what they are useful for is tuning.

So if you know your car is setup with say a 1.15 ratio, and man you just need the *** end to swing around a little bit faster, you can now with no guess work select a spring that is going to help move your car towards 1.20 which should make it a little looser.

It's just a tool and a reference. And it sure as heck can't tell you what you like or prefer, it's like saying "hey it's 70 degrees outside". Some people might like it, some people might not. Some people put on a jacket, some people go swimming.
