I think I will go down to 27.5 all around, green springs in back, and see if the turn in improves at all. It was my first time driving a b4 on the track and it was challenginge weaving through all of the short course mayhem! So many SC trucks flying and spinning around on the track. I broke a rear arm (it was a carbon arm) and I also smoked the rear inner bearings. Replaced both items and went the rest of the day without any other breakage. I did manage to blow out the left front shock. I will replace the shaft and put a new seal kit in it soon.
In reading this I had a feeling you would lose some steering, What caster blocks are you running?
