Moving the steering posts to the rear hole will result in more ackerman in your steering. On the track the car will feel like it has more aggressive steering. It's not a hard setting to change (just 2 screws and some turnbuckle adjustments) so you can always give it a shot.

If the buggy is transferring too much weight to the rear on power, then you could also consider adding a shim under your RF hingepin block to increase your anti-squat. This will keep the rear flatter on acceleration and reduce rear weight transfer when on the gas.
