I have 1/2 oz in front of the front tower, the brass tyranny weights, 3/4oz in the back of the battery tray, and my shorty pack is all the way forward. The last time out with this set-up I couldn't get it to turn at all. I'm running it again tomorrow in a series race. Thanks

The 22 usually has a ton of steering.

if i were him, I would take out that weight of the back.
try adding some camber gain to the front end should help a bit.
also, is the set up he's talking about 25/5 or 30/0?
