So I am getting a lot of chassis rub when running mod 12th. This is with 10k tube lube running a whole host of different side springs.

Is this something that is fairly common with mod 12th on a fairly technical track, or should I try addressing it with thicker tube lube?

I have only ran mod on very flowing layouts before with very few abrupt direction changes and chicanes, so I am in unfamiliar territory with our current layout. I am also concerned about making the car too edgy and burning through rear traction if I use thicker tube lube, since our carpet is medium traction at best with our normal practice and racing.

Car is a CEFX, currently using 10k tube lube, SM linear side springs just touching. Any ideas?
