My car was doing a similar thing on a layout a week or two ago... coming off small double, right into a sharp 180, the car would hook. I had to drive around it... let the car settle for just a half sec more before turn in. I have flat fronts and tower on order. That was on kit setup with 1.7 in rear. I have since switched to 1.6 in rear and have not seen the issue pop up again. This could have solved it by slowing down the rear weight transfer a bit. Give it a try.
Edit: Saw you are already on 1.6's. Get those flat front arms and tower on... should solve it.

For anyone that has done the b5 rear arms. Did you use a spacer at all? I'm using im the 1mm spacer on the back side and it real tight. Didn't know if you guys sanded the arms down or just pulled the washer.

Black springs all around? Sounds too soft. The white springs all around is pretty dialed. 1.6 pistons all around is good too. 32/30 oil front/back or 30/27. Should feel pretty good. I like the inner most hole for mounting the rear shocks on the tower, like Maifield's setups have reflected.
EDIT: Note, these setup tips are for indoor clay.

Thanks for the replies on the gearing. Yeah idk it's weird that it gets so warm. I thought about the undergearing too but if I gear up anymore the car feels like it has no low end around the technical sections in 17.5. I am going to do some more playing around tomorrow with just gearing and see what I can figure out. Also on Maifields Warehouse3 setup it says he is running 23/81 gearing with a 7.5 and timing 0. Would that mean he retarded the timing back to 0 on the motor or left it at the stock 20? I'm having issues at 21/81 with my 7.5 getting hot and stock timing of 21/81.. so maybe that explains the 0 timing.
