Tamiya whites are an OK spring but I prefer Ride or HPI. To help get your tyres into the right operating temperature try different additives and higher temps on your warmers (~70c). If that doesn't work go lighter shock oil and a harder spring.

Also, your chassis is fine. In general I think people are way too quick to change carbon when their issues can more easily be solved with setup
Ok thank you I will try returning to c/c in front, I think that b/b are fine with wide tracks because the car react well but maybe too much for chicanes
@ Qatmix, I will try it but running with ride purple in front and red in rear, in this track, it seems like the end having the harder spring generate more grip, I found it difficult to understand. Somebody knows why?
Thanks for help
