Default b6.4d clay oval car setup

i have a b6.4d that i run on a high bite, high banked oval track here in Michigan. car runs great but im having a bit of a steering problem. i need more steer in the car. yes i have set end points and adjusted setting in controller already. the car dose not have a ton of push just long sweeping turns for some reason. im running a protek 160t servo.
also i had a guy come up to me at the track after noticing my cars rear shock set up. right now the shocks are in the front of the drive shafts. he was saying to put them behind the shafts for better handling and more steer? is this true. do any of you have the shocks in the back and can tell a difference?

thanks

Can you adjust your toe on the rear? If the rear left is toe in and you toe out the rear right you will get some rear steer effect.

I have moved my shocks to the rear, of the A-arm.

I'm racing a TLR 5.0. I had to rotate my rear shock tower also.

The theory behind the move is, "as I understand it"

Moving the shocks to the rear, moves the weight of the shocks further back on the car.
To give the car a pendulum effect causing it to rotate easier.

Did it help my car ???
I'm not sure because I changed so many other things at the same time.
