What are your shock angles and droop settings? Try running the front droop at 0. That should help a little. How is the bite on the track that you are running on. If its low bite you may have to go to more holes in the rear shock or lighter oil in the rear. Also where are your lower rear hinge pins. Try going down to the lowest position if you don't have it there. Also rear sway bar position is another factor. If its not flat make it flat. If it still doesn't have enough rear traction move the swaybar mounting point to the inside on the lower rear arms. Try increasing the front sway bar. So many things to try. Let us know how it works for you.
