If high speed steering is the only thing you'd like to have more of, you could also experiment with the rear wing position a bit.

What about the additional dampers go in the middle of the rear wing like on the Mazda 6 and the Alfa 2.1 and the ones that go at the side like the older Stratus 1.0 and 2.1? How does it affect handling? When do you use them?

Correct me if I'm wrong Julius but smaller rear wing gives better steering at high speed, right?

The additional flaps on the wings help straight line stability. They also help keep the rear in line a bit in corners. I personally don't use the fins on the wing but experiment with them to see if you notice a difference.

Many of us sometimes forget that aerodynamics play a big part in car handling.

It all depends on the combination of car setup body type wing size track layout etc.

Its probably wear and tear ... confirm by looking at the pieces ...

I don't think the 2 speed housing broke because of shifting too hard. Else, you'll have the fastest engine on the track. Never happened to me. Just the 2 speed housing wears out over usage. Perhaps some debris caught on and somehow ripped the aluminum housing apart?
Or the 2 speed screw is too much out that it "catches" on the holes of the 2 speed housing and ripped it. That's the only thing I can think off...Other than that, the only other thing that comes into my mind is to claim warranty from Uncle Crash.

cut your tires to about 51 or 52mm to start, and then lower the chassis to 4mm of ride ht, that will help a lot. other wise stiffer car harder tire.

You meant 61 to 62 mm tires...
51 or 52 mm foams and you'll be running on plastic rims.
