You do. I would. Everyone (mostly) on here would.

But do Manufacturers? They take it out, see how it feels, and tune it. Repeat. Notice how they moved over to let that porche pass? They're not trying to time themselves. They're tuning.

You mentioned the track would eat you alive...I agree - what other reason would they want to do some suspention tuning there?
