His experiences largely matched mine, though I never messed with hard/soft.

Running soft/hard gives me a car that I've been very happy with in sweepers and I can drive confidently in slaloms, but I find hard to consistently place in the offsetty sweepy in between stuff. At bumpy sites, the car can be really loose on throttle on exit. Cranking up rebound helps mitigate that.

Running hard/hard drastically improves all the weaknesses I find with the front bar on Soft, but it is really easy to lose the front of the car. I tend to struggle with asking too much of the front, so I've struggled trying to make front hard work all season.

Overall, I've found the setup extremely frustrating and will hopefully be debuting the car with a few simple STX mods the week after nationals.
