tc4 setup was purple springs camber links all in on tower 2hole from tower and hub 60 wght 3 piston 2degree c hub rear cooper 4o wght shock out on tower links all the way in 3,0 rear toe standard spacer on rear

rubber tires or foam tires?

he said he was at the birds.. i'd guess foams...

i had that problem, playing around with the upper shock mounting positions helped some, as well as going from purple to magenta on the rear.

Are you running any toe in the front? I try to keep mine close to zero as possible too much toe out makes my car twitchy too. Maybe soften up the front a little too. If there is too much body roll try a swaybar.

Glue?
 

Did you try super glue on the sidewalls of the tires?

What tire size were you running?

When the traction is high (Snowbirds, Cleveland, Novak, etc...) it is to your advantage to run your tires as small as you can. At Cleveland this past year, we were starting them at 2.24" and letting them wear down from there.

If you've an adjustable handset, turn the steering down a bit :nod:

hi i had the tires glued tires were at 2.24 did all that stuff i was so tired at the birds i brk my antena of the helio had to go to bck up radio the mars ko

If you tried all of the above you can always turn down your steering speed in the radio...A lot of times in high bite I will do this to smooth out the steering and make the car easier to drive...

Just a thought...

Good luck!

What body???

You can also try running a little toe out....
