Car is an imca northern sport mod. Solid 3 link. Car is very good when there is grip in the track. Car is too loose on entry and into the center of the turn when off throttle when the track slicks off. Seem to wait forever for the rr to take hold so I can get back on throttle and can't go into the corner hard enough to get position on anyone. Corner exit is good. Just looking for more ideas on what to try. Thanks in advance I love reading the forum.

Springs: lf 550 rf 600 lr200 rr175
Left 54% rear 57% bite 130 lbs
Pan hard is 3inches above to 3 below rear end centerline which is about 18 degrees
Lr bar 21 degrees rr bar is 0 degrees

What tire pressures? They are important when your on slick. Also increase the angle in your panhard bar helps induce some side bite. And around here we run with no more than 52% left on the slick. Also going up to a 200lb or spring on the slick will help your entry.

Confused?

And to add, if you can, try to stay in the throttle a little. Meaning, do t get completely out of the gas on entry. It makes a huge difference.

Stiffen lf spring to 600/650
Siffen rr spring to 200
Raise jbar on frame or lower on pinion
Soften compression rr shock

I think your left side % is ok.

Tires pressures last time out: lf 12 rf14 lr10 rr13
If i shorten the panhard and add angle will that plant the rr sooner?
