But after carefully reading all of your replies, and thinking the feedback I want to take a stab at the big picture answer-


Leave camber where it is for now;
Lower my (hot) pressures in the front to match the rear approx 34-35 psi all around;
Move the rear bar to the softest setting;
Trail brake into corners to help rotate the car which will now have more rear end grip;
Get on the power earlier -while in the corner or earlier at exit- applying lock as needed as I wind out of the corner.


A lot easier to write about then actually do -but still have to ask- Am I getting close?

If anything I think you were getting on the gas early, not late, because you weren't trail braking. Remember, when you get on the gas, you're going to push the car wider. This is especially true with closed rear diff. How much will vary from car to car, but on throttle will push the car wide (understeer). Unless you light up the rear tires or something, you're not bringing the ass end around with gas. You're doing it with brakes.

I really don't see much understeer where you're saying you have it, but it's hard to tell from video if it's subtle. It looks well sorted if anything.
