Default KF on low grip tracks

How to cure power off oversteer , is this due to running geared diff or something else ?

Most people I see use the ball diff, rear shocks mounted on the rear and the TrishBits rear weight. Tom Cockerill also drills a third shock mounting hole in the rear wishbones so the the shocks are more inboard.

I added 3 degrees of camber to the rear wheels for the final, the difference for such a small adjustment was substantial!

I really struggled yesterday day with it . Felt like I had just started all over again culminating in taking the whole front end off on the top wall !

That crash was pretty epic though. I heard it from the other side of the hall!

I assume this is on the shock tower? The progressive stance of the shock (more angled) should give the car more roll at low speeds whilst firming up when it rolls a lot.

For what it's worth (as it is a different car), I tried it yesterday on my DEX210 and the car became from being snappy and loose on the vinyl to being relatively planted and very forgiving.
