Some thoughts I pulled out of my hair:
Lower CG- either by moving weight down, or moving the whole car down. Stiffer suspension- you obviously have a nice F/R balance, make everything harder to keep the weight from shifting towards the outside. Apparently it only does it when you're turning right.

What springs are you running? Are you running a limit slip differential? 200lbs rear springs, stock 911 19mm torsion bars upfront, front and rear swaybar, Koni adjustable shocks on full hard for the track, no LSD (yet). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) PS: Keep in mind, this car gets mostly driven on the street, i don't want to go full race for the suspension. All the images were taken at the track with the Konis set to full hard. |

All the images were taken at the track with the Konis set to full hard. I couldn't keep 222 on the ground with less than 240# springs in back. Also I never ran a rear sway bar after several people, that know what they are talking about, told me they didn't work. You have a bunch more weight in the back than I did, so thinking you might even nead heaver springs. Easy to swap out your springs where ever you want to race. Also if the front lifts less without the sway bar hooked up and with heavier springs you know your going the right direction. Ask around and borrow a set of 300#ers and give it a try. I'd also call Bontempi and ask what springs the 3.6 they build had in her. |
