It could be interesting, not taking a dig at you (although it could be taken that way - please dont :)), but why dont you just give it 10% drag brake for a day out and see how you like it, instead of asking everyone else what they do? It's not like advice on buying motors/batteries that costs you 100s and 100s so you want to know your getting bits that are suited to your purpose.

And re the shocks, hard springs and soft oil is a bad combo in my book, under dampened = very bouncy on the back end makes it harder to control, to each their own though I guess.
