Oh yeah, caveat: I'm not an autocross guy...

For autocross we have a few who in the GR (1MM larger rear sway) drive with Redshifts (revalved BC coils) and had tons of issues putting power down with a 8/9k combo and a 19MM front bar on stiff. Their fix was lots of toe in, in the rear and a 22MM front bar.

"lots of toe in, in the rear," ewwwwww....
Lots of rear toe-in has *always* sucked for me on every car I've intentionally or inadvertently tried it on. AWFUL, no turn-in, more nonlinear handling at the limit and in transitions, could actually become *very* unstable *in a straight line* in very wet/inundated track conditions! And then at the next corner would not turn in... Also incredibly rapid tire wear. For me, zero positives to running a lot of rear toe-in and a ton of big negatives...

It seems I should definitely try the rear 8k spring, and possibly try the stock sway.

Yeah, sounds like good approach. Honestly don't feel like just going 7k to 8k on rear springs is going to make a profound difference in balance but could be wrong.

The problem is an event happens each weekend and I treat it as a test and tune, so I could make 1 change at a time, or both (I guess).

Also could be that some layouts are more understeer-prone than others...

Curious as to what settings you run front and rear for rebound and compression as well.

Currently I'm halfway between RCE recommendations for SS-2 coilovers for road vs. track, 10 clicks out in front and 12 clicks out in back. Might crank in a couple of clicks in back as I feel like I'm a little too reboundy off of bumps/whoops on the street.
