Without changing the springs/shocks themselves, what would happen if I increase the strength of my whiteline front and rear sway from soft setting to hard setting? Would I lose my mechanical grip? Would it theoretically benefit me?
It should reduce the roll and so in theory keep the weight more evenly on all four tyres allowing them to work better I would imagine.

250lb springs are pretty soft for track use so you probably are getting a lot of weight shifting around.

When I was on tein flex a's with 6kg (350lb) springs I ran the rear and front Whiteline bars on their stiffest position but still found it a little soft.
