I am finding the tires just get too hot after 3.5 minutes and pretty soon its drift racing... Car just doesn't want to rotate without throwing it into the corner (which is half the problem). If I increase the rear rotation then it gets too loose after 3.5 mins.
It's a very low grip track. I used 36R's instead of the Take Off's and even they overheated at about 4 mins in. Fortunately I drove a lot of off-road and I can drive a way loose/pushy car.
