Hi Pedro,

U need to transfer more weight to the front of the car off power.

Try unwinding the downstop screws in the rear.
Softer front spring.
Add some front toe-out.
More caster.

Thats where I would start.
This is of course based on the presumption that your using the ideal tyres.

Cheers
Andrew

Hi,

less caster
Less rear toe in/more front toe-out
Lighter diff oil in front
Soft tires
Higher front roll center

Those are all a good start off.

Cheers

Hold on guys,

He asked for more off power steering, not more steering.

You need to assume that his on power steering is ideal.

what about the rear anti roll bar? Does it change off-power steering?

If you use a softer roll bar you'll have more off power sterring, altough on power stering will decrease. Additionally if the track has long round sweepers this might not be a good idea, but you might want to try this set-up

Cheers.
