 What is the recommended noise suppression setup for Fastrack?  I have an OSB type of material under it.   It did the job with the Realtrax.  I'm game to try something else with the Fasttrack.   I like the solid rail as well.  Do not try to combine the solid and hollow rail with Realtrax.  That doesn't work well.
