Not according to the Race Tech Suspension Bible.

According to Race Tech, static sag is the difference between the shock fully extended and the bike with rider and all gear on board.

Static sag and race sag are the same (according to Race Tech).

The sag between the fully extended shock and with only the weight of the bike is called "free sag" or I have also seen it called "bike sag".

I think that is the cause of some of the suspension confusion...different terms for the same thing.
