Running lighter oil can definately make the car less stable getting into corners and if that, combined with some sort of strange setup or tire issue may cause your car to get loose a few minutes into a run.
Maybe try throwing something like 1000 in the gear diff and see what happens... if it doesn't help or make any difference at all, the problem might be somewhere else in your setup.
Hope this helps!

Thanks for the info. I'm also going to post my setup tonight and see if anyone sees anything else that might cause this issue.
Thanks again.
