Definitely at least get AGXs.  I don't like the Koni "Red" inserts for
anything other than street driving though.  Not enough damping IMHO for
competition.

3 wheeling on the other hand isn't in itself a bad thing.  I still get
three
wheeling with my suspension in really tight autocross stuff (Koni shortened
race suspension, ST bar front, Increased Rate ST Bar rear, 380#/300# ERS
springs).

Also, I really like 300/250 as a starting point for spring rates.  300/200
for a Classic in my experience is still too front biased.
