I had to put less toe on the rear because the car was really jumpy on the long straight.
but, a question, how can I adjust the car on all those holes what the shocks are concerned. Should I go thicker on oil, stronger on springs ... a combination of those two?
I will try different things but thought any tips could help point me in the right direction.
thx in advance

Try the rear hub low (upper holes), that helps chill the car out on high grip and bumpy tracks. It has a similar effect as raising the inner link on a conventional car. It will also take away some turn in pivot and give more steering on power. You do lose drive with it like that though so if its really slippy it may be no good.
Also i find 40 gramms under the fronts shocks is too much and it makes the car hang on too much out of the turn. I run 20g mostly.
A softer rear spring will calm the car down, i run yellow with the extra spring on the back and red on the front. So i'd suggest going back to 3 degree toe and going softer on the spring.
ride height i run the car with rear wishbones level and front slightly sagged (smiley face)
Hope this helps and gives you a start with things to try
