"Playing the devil's advicate"

So does the opposite hold true then?
To increase traction, do the opposite of the list?

The hardest thing to tuning is diagnosing the problem correctly at least for me.

I would say that in some cases, but not all...

For the life of me I don't understand how you get grip roll in a TC. What are your camber settings, toe out/in settings, ride height and front castor blocks?

On a high bite track it's fairly easy...... It deals more with droop and roll center than anything.

Iam using old blue Xray springs which are one level stiffer than white which were used by most racers.

My friend was having the same issue as me and he is using front sway bar.

My tires walls were not completely glued to disc so maybe that was the biggest problem.
if its front tire traction corner entry before apex then maybe try thicker front oil also
