Those with adjustable shocks, What do you set them on when going to the track? I usually set them on Front-1 Rear 8? Any insight anyone?

Even though I don't have them...I am guess that you want the stiffest in the rear (because you want to cut down as much squating/weight transfer as possible) and keep it on the softest at the front to allow for better traction. So I would agree with your settings.

I guess I would agree, but why would you want softest in the front? I would think stiff all the way around. but I'm new to this.

I do stiffest all around. To minimize weight transfer. it is FWD. If it were RWD, I would soften it up accordingly to maximize weight transfer.
