That's rider sag right, not static sag?
I agree there's no magic number, but...........30 might be good for a smooth track, but consider that most people recommend more for the streets, probably because streets are bumpier than tracks. So if your track is particularly bumpy, I'm gonna speculate it makes sense to move towards a street setting.
Anecdote: I remember when I first started riding, the local "bros" would tell me to max out the rear preload to make it feel "sporty". And I did it, without even knowing what my sag was. Then I started noticing how my ass would catch air over bumps.
