Mmmm, very interesting. My first question is would option 1:

really help control the rate @ which the right side is loaded? I'm picturing T1 in the South Chicane @ NHMS (my home track) which is a left hander off the front straight. Even in my stock LT1 I can go into it @ about 100 mph. As I turn left the right side will be loaded regardless of the extension of the LR shock. In fact, if the reaction is so slow, I can picture picking up the LR wheel off the ground, which does nothing for grip.

Given that, I'd say option 2 would be better than option 1, but still less desirable than controlling the weight transfer with the proper spring rate.

That's a great question though, I'm looking forward to seeing where this thread goes.
