Nurburgring shock settings

I seem to recall and couldn't find it in search what the compression/rebound settings were for the Nurburgring run for the CLK63 BS.
Anyone know? I'm doing a high speed track day and wanted to experiment.

Ok, so I just spent two days at Willow Springs dialing in the shock settings. I don't need no stinking Nurburgring settings! This car rocks with the new control arms!

The new control arms you're talking about are the Weistec ones correct? Anything else you need to do once the arms are installed? Need any further dialing?

I think he is talking about the evosport one. WEISTEC developed adustable front camber and caster plates which are incredible, don't think that they are available for sale yet, Earl and I are running them but still in R&D I beleive.

No, these are Evosport control arms that are used on their World Challenge car.
They have adjustable rear camber.
