Hey folks, curious what your preference or suggestion is on what color shock spring (TA springs) for the RC10GT racing on a packed-to-slightly-loose dirt track? Right now I have blue up front, gold in the rear and they seem to be alright, but I've heard silver in the rears tend to perform better.

My primary issue is that the rear end tends to squat and stay down when I give it throttle. I've tried several different sets of the same springs, thinking the springs were just bad, and it does improve but there is always still a bt of squat in the them.

Anyhow, any suggestions appreciated!
 
I've got silver front, green rear, and have no problems with squatting. Perhaps using a smaller-holed piston or heavier weight oil will help out?
