I'm having an very unusual problem with traction rolling with my E4LE. Tried raising the roll center, stiffer springs (1.9 front and 1.5 rear) 35wt oil stock pistons. Adjusted droop to 0 front, 3 rear. Ride height is 5.5/5.0 f/r. Tires are CS27 (a bit older and may have worn out inserts). It has a front diff.

Steering is very good but it rolls over approaching the apex.

Have you tried the spool or oneway?
They will induce some understeer at turn in and mid corner.
I like the spool for most of my local tracks.
One other thing to do is reduce your steering dual rate.
How heavy is your car? Is it legal weight?
Do you have a heavy metal battery tray? (this really helps by lowering the CG).

By the way, I am considering having some lipo trays made so if there is enough interest, I will do a run on these in brass or steel. Cost will be around $50. Shipped
I am also making more antenna mounts over the next week or so.
I will make both a slip fit style and a landing style that will accommodate the clamping post like the one in my previous post. Many of the fast guys are running their cars without the mid support on lower bite tracks to gain more chassis flex and thus the antenna mount is needed. $20 shipped.

Sorry for hijacking your post I got carried away.
