I couldn't keep mine pointing in any direction let alone the right direction. With some help from Kevin D we managed to get the back end to behave a bit - was jumping from under to snap over steer.

Removeing the rear arb help to control the the snap oversteer but I was still left with fairly terminal understeer on the top part of the circuit.

The sharp left hander before going uphill was my spin-point of choice, bearing in mind it was pistlicating down all day when I was there :lol:

Right hander at the end of the pits was understeer city - like almost off the track, right hand then left hand up the hit turned into a tankslapper with autotest right foot required. Double apex at top had understeer followed by oversteer.

Long bend at the bottom was the only place the car behaved correctly - it loved that corner 8)
