I will echo what Tyson and Nick said... BUMPY!!!  Dean's 12k/10k suspension was definately a disadvantage out there.  I would say about 5 times per lap there are bumps that would hit so hard, I'd bounce my head on the side/roof of the car... thank goodness for that helmet! 

  I rode w/ MikeK at the end of the day, and his stock STi suspension seemed to grip much better.  Plus I hear, softer is better for the dirt.
