Depends on the type of track and tires as much as it does shocks. I've raced midgets for more than 20 years and the weight transfer to the RF on an oval track should be the "tightest", the LR should be the lightest. If you want a car that's tight in and lose out try using softer tires up front and harder tires in back, use the blue or yellow up front but use the next step lower in the rear. If that don't give you what you need start switching the toe in from stock to 1.5 degrees or better.

I race XMODS on a dedicated oval track, my current set up is extremely fast for a pretty much RS product car, but my tire and spring combination is different that what most guys would even consider. Best bet is to try combinations and find what works best for you.
