Close one or two holes on the front shocks and the initial oversteer should go away. If this doesn't completely get rid of the problem, then maybe change your rear downstop to 2 1/2 or 3. Try them one at a time though.

[quote="teamgp"] I agree that using a spool would also be the ticket to getting rid of the oversteer and it may give a better overall race time. But if a one-way is preferred, closing holes on the front shocks should work. quote] Actually for him and his track that is bumpy and probably doesn't have alot of traction. You don't want close the holes in the shocks. If the track is bumpy you want the shocks to be able to absorb the bumps. Not bounce on them. KT |

after opening up the shocks in the rear and making a few minor changes this set up is awesome. I have noticed a significant drop in lap times and all of us who run this set up perform very well. If anyone is interested in having a super fast stock set up I have posted it. |

Very interesting setup. Were there any negative effects with having a the front ride height higher than the rear? (i.e. air getting up under the body and causing a push?) Here is a previous post about using the 2 degree clips for in-board front toe-out. http://www.teamxray.com/xforum/viewtopic.php?t=618 |

You better mean "interesting" set up in a good way. You told me to run it like this. 
I actually messed up on the set up. I used 5.5 in the front and 6 in the rear. I have revised my posted set up and switched them around. As far as using the 2 degree clips for in-board front toe-out I did have more steering though the middle of the corner but less on the exit. |
