Return to the 10K oil on the diff to smoothen the bad manners of that guy coming out the turns. The difference on diameter of the tyres have too the responsibility of your handling problems. Change to a new set of softer foams (35sh for example).
i was too lazy to change at the track
went to another local track today, how would you classify a smooth asphalt parking lot track? track surface not as rough like yesterday one...

Ended having 3 different diffs: 10K, 30K and solid. So I can do quick changes (if you can consider quick the need of almost dismantling all the rear end.

So when I'm at the track I can do 'fairly' quick diff changes. Sheesh! how I envy the adjustable diff of the Snakes.

Default Carlsen-tuned MR-12

V-1-R, I run on sponge 42 front 40 rear,
BTW for those asking about carlsen-tuned MR-12, I bought mine from a LHS in malaysia, I was informed this engine (GT, GT3 and GT3R) are available in hongkong. Maybe some of you guys from hongkong can clarify this. I got mine (5P-GT) for about HKD1800.

Maybe Manticore can brief us on this engine?
