During the race meeting I changed back many of my other setup changes which didn't solve the issue but I didn't have time to rebuild the diff back to original configuration.

Anyone have any input or things to try? I'm on ETS black carpet.
no ETS carpet experience here ... but its really helpful if you have a resistance measurement on your diff. various companies sell these diff checkers. you can then know for certain that what you put back into your car is either stiffer / softer / similar (but different due to shim changes).
