@cmiovino sweet glad that's out of the way.
For a first event yeah sounds like it's just getting everything gelling, I certainly wouldn't bother making any judgements, adjustments, or conclusions on 170 run tires, but I usually hit cords around 120 here. Ride height can make a huge impact, I'd take two turns out of the rear spring perches for the next event imho, no need to go get an alignment or do anything else. i.e. for Vegas Pro we dropped the rear 4 turns and the balance went from undrivable loose to a little push. I spun my wheels literally for about 2 years chasing alignment and damping issues, threw a dozen combinations of 300/400/500# springs and it meant nothing. Ride height changes helped mitigate problems but never solved them. fwiw we max the KW Clubsports on our Mini, the twin tubes just can't keep up. edit: pax works out decent for us imho, if I'm in the top 20% I know I'm not sucking. edit2; more rear camber might help as well, most are 2.5-3 from what I've talked to, not worth running to the alignment shop for 0.3 degrees but next time you're there for other reasons worth a try.
