As Tom suggested, softer front springs and stickier front tires like pit shumizu 571 or 573. Are you still on the stock tires or you got the new Ride GR tires?

I wouldn't mess with the Ackerman on the wrc as it makes the car very twitchy on the straight. I would rather the car pushes in the corners than it being undrivable. Leave it on the inner holes so the steering linkage is more parallel.

Kinda looks like a Roche... that is a sweet paint job though - love the Renault. Wouldn't mind Alonso going back to them - such a waste of talent at McLaren (at the moment anyway).

I'm running pit 571/572 tires on my lightningf on prepped outdoor asphalt and on some of the high speed turns the rear end will hop. The car is still setup completely stock. Any ideas? It was my first time running F1 and I'm hooked.

Try thinner side damper fluid and softer damper springs with less preload.
