[Q] Root question I haven't seen answered

Hi All,
Instead of using CF-Root kernel to root my phone, can I use the SpeedMod(which includes root as well), or do I have to flash to CF-Root first and then re-flash to SpeedMod kernel?
Also, do you suggest I flash my Vodafone GR firmware to a stock one(KG2), prior to rooting the phone?
Many thanks for all the information posted on this forum!

no, you do not need to apply if speedmod is rooted.
no you do not have to go to stock to root.

To root, you need to flash a rooted kernel (CF is closest to stock with root) through Odin.
