Well I ran the KS Super Softs on the track before I clean it, and they shave off 0.3 tenths off my times, but the hopping/chattering is worse! 
It's rear chatter when applying power. It shows up when going through slow corners, and trying to rip back on the throttle. When on power in the sharp turns it chatters enough to throw off the car and put me into the wall. I guess I'll try T plates next.
Any Ideas?

Definitely! I ran it last month for the first time and recently got a gla that is was smoother and more consistent right off the bat. Amazing coming from an amz. Got another buddy I'm trying to get to post his tikes as well for this month.
So far down to about 6:24 with a 4.589/fast lap. Need more consistency.

The damper is free, polished with 5K, and both disks and dual spring shock are dry. Will be trying a softer T plate first and then harder and will report back. The Super Soft rears helped and kept the rear end from whipping around the corners, but I will try some mediums if the T plates don't help with the chattering. Having fun with the SWB RM! Just hard to make time while keeping it planted. Probably my ham fistedness!

On the 90mm I tried to get the SuperSofts to work and while they are fast, the chattering was bad and would upset the car in the turns and the rear would come around, usually sending me into the wall. So I went to some PN KS Mediums(I'm pretty sure of the hardness), and they are fast and the chattering is just about gone! It is really hooking up, and mid 4 second laps are becoming pretty constant.
Went to my McLaren12C PN 2.5, and I still need to work on it's balance. It's not turning when I need it to. On and Off Power turning needs improvement.
I'm having a Love/Hate relationship with Bachmans Comm Drops. I really like how they free up the PN 70T, but half way through a run they wear off and the drag break affect totally changes the way the car drives. I'm only using 1 drop, as everything I've read says NOT to use more. Anyway I'll keep working with it as see.
Also got my 911 GT3 in! Cool body but has A LOT of slop in the side clips, and after warping a previous 12C in the oven I WON'T try that again. Going to start building an EVO for the Porsche class, SOON!

I switched my 90mm chassis from the MX-5 to the 911, and man I really like the way it handles! I went to a W0 20mm wheel with PN KS soft radials and I can get around this layout with it better than any other setup I have. My laptop battery was dead so I didn't get any timed laps, but man does it get around this tight layout well!
