When one of the Marc's and I were discussing setups and the topic of "how many hole pistons?" came up, he was using 3 and I was on 2 and then we were like, okay so what oil would give them the same feeling and after a few seconds of silent contemplation we came to the conclusion of "bah...just run it" hehehe.

At a recent practice for the upcoming Euro`s Marc was using AE gold up front and silver in the rear. He also tested TA white all around. And he had drilled an extra hole in the rear shock tower so the dampers could stand up more vertical.

OK I can´t see everything he´s doing but usually it´s really like this. His father told me indoors he was running the car at 2 races without touching anything.

Kinda reminds me of a Barry Baker setup... he'll change one or two things.. that's about it...
That's how I ran my TC3 back in the day... don't touch it or change setup. Worked good where-ever I went... I like those kind of setups.. hehe

I set my EPA on my radio then turn the Dual Rates down to 80-70%. Maybe you can try turning down some Dual Rates. That's the quick way for a sometimes iffy rear end. You could also try to reduce some of the rear droop by .5mm at a time. Or add .5mm shims (at a time) under the rear inner camber link until it goes away. More rear toe in might help as well.
