I'm copying this from pirate for those that might be interested.
Wayne from All-tech will be back at the Badlands doing shock tuning in June around the Ultra4 race. He has set aside a day for non-racers. For those that don't know, Wayne has been doing shock tuning for many top Ultra4 teams. In the past year he has become the official Fox tuning guy, but still does other brands on the side.
We are definitely not a top U4 team, but we spent last Friday at the Badlands with Wayne and PAC springs tuning Neither Skinny Nor Pretty after putting some new shocks on the back end. We gained quite a bit of speed running through the whooped out section he uses for tuning. It wasn't our first time working with him, and we have made great strides at each tuning session.
So what is a tuning session like? What do you need?
You should show up with your rig ready to go. Have tire pressures where you would normally run them, make sure the rig has been nut and bolted and no other issues. No need to spend your tuning time working on other issues not associated with shock tuning.
You will need whatever tools you need to remove and replace your shocks. The quicker and easier you can do this, the easier your day will go.
You'll run through his tuning pass as quick as you can. Wayne will watch and take notes on how the shocks are doing. He’ll send you back to camp to pull your shocks and bring to his trailer. He knocks them down, changes the valving, and you reinstall. For most tuning sessions, repeat until you run out of time or energy.
You should talk with Wayne before you go to make sure his trail tuning session follows what we have done with him in the past.

I am not affiliated in any way with Alltech. Wayne is what I would call a race friend. We see him at many races and he's tuned our car a couple of times and provided advice on many other occasions. He's an official vendor for PAC, who is one of our sponsors.
