After reading this article from Race Tech:

https://www.racetech.com/page/title/...%20They%20Work

I got this: (correct me if I'm wrong)
I can tune slow compression by changing the forks oil only and not install emulators.
Emulators will allow me to tune slow compression without changing the oil.
Emulators will allow me to tune fast compression.
Slow compression occurs when you brake and lean.
Fast compression occurs when you hit a hole.

If the above is correct, and your track doesn't have significant pot holes, are emulators any useful in a track only ninjette?

I know it's a popular mod at the track. What am I missing?
