How much droop are you all running. I have been running 0 in the front and +8 in the rear.
In my last outing, I was running 0 and +4 in the front and rear respectively. My usual setup is near stock like 0 front and 6 or 7 in the rear. This time, I needed the car to dive into the chicanes and coners off power. It turned out that that +4 rear was needed. The surprising thing was the car handled pretty well on moderate high speed sweepers and slow corners. The rear end did not swing out with a front one way. Braking was also superb and the car tracked straight when hard brakes were applied. Perhaps it could be the 808150 GTP floating body mount that I modified to take a TC car shell that made the rear end stable...
So the summary of my setup with the following below should yield a super oversteered car but it was nice to drive in the end.
small front tires
toe out +1
softer front compound than rear
a lot of rear droop +4
Perhaps this was a cumulative "problem" of running the front roll center too high with the smaller front tires and the front upper arm mod.
I must remember to take it one step at a time
