Loose going in and turn and spin out coming off corners

Treat these as two separate problems: reduce entry oversteer first, then add rear grip on corner exit. Assuming the kit setup, try one change at a time so you can tell which phase improves.

  • Entry: Stiffen the right-front spring one rate, from the kit 10 lb/in purple spring to 11 lb/in white. A stiffer RF spring helps calm the car as it enters the turn. The 22S kit front spring is 10 lb/in.
  • Corner exit: If it still steps out under power, soften the right-rear spring one rate, from the kit 6 lb/in orange to 5 lb/in red. That can help the rear hold on as you accelerate. The oval setup guide also lists more RR toe-in or lighter differential fluid as options for a car that is loose on exit.

Test each change for a few laps before making another. If the rear still spins loose coming off, tell me whether the track is dusty/low-grip or tacky/high-grip, plus your current spring rates and rear toe settings.
