Default questions about setting up tokico 5 way adjustable coilovers

K I have a 93 ex coupe and I wanted to know what settings should I run in the front and in the rear? What has everyone else put their too when they used tokico...i just want to get a better launch....I seem to get bad 60 foot times with higher settings like 4 or 5 but better with 1 or 2? Does that sound right? What do you guys have them at? Any help would be appreciated...btw here is a pic of the car and the setup is below. Please no flames or stupid comments...just tell me how you have yours setup.

I'm not familiar with Tokiko settings, but you want looser up front and stiffer in the rear for drag launching. This will let the front end be a little more "giving" to allow for better grip and less wheel hop-unless you got slicks, traction bars and/or correct camber. And with the rear stiffer, this will help reduce body movement from front to rear during launch and shifts.
