I bet I'm pooper!

Those are really low! Have you checked them to see what they are post race from those settings? how much are they losing when cooling down during the race?

Maybe mine are way too hard and thats why I'm not getting any feel?

They are about 35/35 proper hot but that does depend on ambient temps and how wet it really is. Do you change your suspension for the wet?.

I should but I don't. I softened up both front and rear on the 600 but I'm leaving the minitwin alone at the moment. May be different if we don't get a day where its just showers. A full wet weekend I may have a fiddle.

So you are saying you get your wets even hotter when you're out in the wet from when they came out of the warmers? Impressive!
