I even took the rear sway bar off once. The rear end skates down the straights, will swing the rear end out on the sweeper, etc. barcode gold fronts, HB Beams and barcode gold rears.

It's as if the rear end is spinning so quickly it can't grip. My B44.2 handles great. Same track, same more 6.5t), geared 18/81. But boy it is fast. For sure! I even tried a 8.5t, thinking 8 needed to take it down, but same results. I'm a bit perplexed, but I know once I figure it out, it will be a keeper.

How much do your saddles weigh? If they are much below 290-300g you maybe should add weight to the rear. Also maybe try to move the electrics towards the rear.
And have you tried shorter rear wheelbase, so that the 2mm shim is behind the hub?
