If you had mid corner understeer, maybe Bilstein would tell you to...
Increase rebound rate on front.
Increase compression rate on rear.


Been there, done that. As backwards as it sounds a lot of it was resolved by upping the front sway bar stiffness. It only happens on longer high load corners. In other corners my car is oversteer biased It has been driving me crazy.

Yeah I can imagine that is the primary contributor physics being what it is and all. I should send a link of this guys in car to you cause it is nuts. The fastest twin I know of in the area has aero and 298whp and ran a 1:51.6, this NA S2K makes 210whp on race gas and has aero and ran a 1:49 on A052's and a 1:47.9 on A005's. The corner speeds are absurd
