is it a frontend problem or a rearsteer problem the fastboys set produces quit a bit of rearsteer as the lr moves forward the car tends to turn right. mite try adjusting stagger or even take a little lr bite out.

i fooled around with this a few years ago, and i found that increasing my RR bite, and leading the LR in helped to correct this issue, i think the LR as it wraps will cause negative rear steer causing the LR to move towards the back of the car. but i didnt spend much time with it because shortly after i started using it the track deemed it illegal.

i thought scooter had said you need rr bite like newguy said and a lot of stagger(4-6in) to make it turn with a full blown fastboys setup.

You will need to trail the right rear 1". Have at least 4" of stagger and a low cross percentage or it will push like a dump truck on the gas.

How much LR bite do you have in it?
