Unhappy Weird Supsension question.

So here it goes.. When I come in to a constant turn for say 3-4 sec at a time my car on my way through the turn starts to feels twitchy and loose and the faster I go around the turn the steering starts to feel lighter and there is a slight twitching from the rear. Any ideas how to fix this

I will start by asking what your sway bars settings are.

Sounds like you should be running some really wide, really sticky R Comp race tires. The stiffer the bars the more traction you take away.

Drop down to full soft rear, and full soft or one up from full soft front.

Endlinks will just be stronger and allow you to remove any preload from it. The swaybar settings are what you need to change.
