Is it because I use the 2 copper shims from the ball diff on each side? or do I need lighter diff oil ?

I only ran 1 raceday ( 6 heats of 6 minutes ). Do I need to give it some time? maybe after a few packs ?

any thoughts ?

There will be some that disagree with this but after talking to a few 210 "fast" guys at the nats and my own experience just use AE black grease and only enough to lubricate. it will not "dif " out and responds much better than the thicker stuff. which to me made the car darty and it wanted to follow the track ie if the track was uneven the car would go with the track instead of straight. went to a light grease and it all went away. maybe on carpet or turf you could go up if you need to.
