The car is quite stable right now with my new springs, I just need to dial the rest in.
Now you're getting the idea. A lot of this is trial and error. Most, if not all, of the stuff I post is "stuff" I've tried and proven on the track. It's not theoretical bull crap about what's supposed to work. Just think it through, the severity of the problem will increase with the amount of weight on the front wheels. When you're accelerating, steering sensitivity decreases cause there is less weight on the front wheels.

Admittedly, I've never driven a car set up like yours, so it was merely a suggestion. There may be other things going on that I have no understanding of because there is no practical experience with your type of set up.
