What is this a sign of? I've been messing around with front and rear track width, camber and tweak and have not found the issue yet .. Anyone have suggestions for this behavior?
It sounds like you are getting a bad case of double steer
excerpt from my cobbled together setup guide
Side Damping:
Thinner - helps to increase rear traction & allows the car to transition faster and turn-in a little better. Decrease front traction, decrease steering.
Stiffer – Increase front traction, increase steering. Slows transition & soften steering in fast sweeper.
If car is double steering on power use, thicker oil to slow reaction time but if go too far, inside rear tires will lift in tight corners.
