It sounds like it is an on-power situation.
The thicker oil is probably slowing down the weight transfer at exit and keeping the weight on the nose a little longer than with the 20wt oil.

All I did was change the wt and springs, now I just got done with some more testing, nothing has changed just that I put 35 wt all around 17 lb springs in front and 14.5 lb srpings in rear, now rear is really loose and will break very easily and lose it. I know droop has a big part in why its happening, but why is it so much worst just by the oil and spring changes? Both test runs where in same place same asphalt, only other difference is the first time with stock setup I had my older CS27GL's in it, and this time I put my brand new ones on... And man was the back loose. Any suggestions besides droop?
Used tires always push, especially if they are used more than 3 runs. Which most people do. So they kind of adjust the car to that setting. Then they put on "freshies" and the car is insanely aggressive.
I think without the droop screws it will be tough to try things and the fresh tires are too aggressive. The tires were the biggest change as the oil and springs seemed fine.

I try to setup the car for fresh tires but that gets expensive. Its a balance for sure.
