When I get done changing the oil I'm gonna put it back to stock settings and start the adjustment over, but I don't really know how it should be set other than stock..
If it's bouncing back up, rebound would be the thing to add, like Guru said. You also want to make sure that it has the correct sag setting for your weight, which can be achieved by adjusting the preload. I'm no expert, but I can help you get it close if you like.

I'm looking forward to riding with you guys this weekend. I will have a camera mount to record those who are interested and to capture some great action!

Ok, Mike has my bike to transport to the Rump. Picked it up about 9:30 last night. So now I just have to get my trailer ready and pack my stuff. In just about 48 hours I will be on the road to the track!
