I've never run at trackside...been running at 510 raceway in Foley MN. It's moist indoor clay, med/high bite. I certainly can't say that my truck handles perfectly at this point but I think it's pretty fast. I've had at least one person that tells me it's twitchy and my fast lap times are some of the best out there but I tend to put the tires on the up side too often. I agree with Smokes comment about the tires. I was running Panther Rattlers all the way around and traction rolling on the sweeper at the end of our back straight periodically. I switched to gold barcodes in the front only and it took away just enough steering to make it more manageable in the sweeper. I was also struggling with looseness on power and to some extent with corner entry. The back end wanted to step out too much for my liking. I was already at 4 degrees rear toe. One of the guys at the track suggested that I jack up my anti-squat (was running 1 degree at that point). I threw a 2 degree shim in there along with the existing 1 degree and the truck just felt awesomely balanced all over the track. Didn't really make much sense as far as what I knew about anti-squat but it worked. I tinkered with 2 degrees and 4 degrees but 3 was the best. I recommended this to another racer with an SC10 and he agreed. Not to suggest that 3 degrees anti-squat is the perfect setting for all SC10's but I think the adjustment changes more on the car than most folks think resisting squatting under acceleration and braking would do. Hope this helps.
