And suggestions on what to do with the links etc to stop it doing this?
I just sold my Cougar for this thinking that it would be better.  But so far all I've done is struggle and results have dropped big time. |
Firstly, what springs, pistons and oils are you running? On a carpet track on mini pins, I would start on 4 hole 55s in the front with 37.5wt oil with Blue springs and 6 hole 55s in the rear with kit yellow springs and 30 - 32.5wt oil
I would then start by raising the rear inner camber link and possibly shortening the link on the hub. Try 2mm spacer on the inside and 3mm on the hub - either the C hole on the hub or the E hole if you want it more locked in.
What you describe is also what I found with the LRC rear block - which is why I like the HRC block. I just found HRC blocks are more consistent throughout the entire turn.
I'd also add TLR4151 weight to the gearbox / shock tower and, for high bite, I would be looking to run my car quite heavy with an under lipo weight as well.
For info, whenever I have run on carpet at Taplow or Maritime, I ended up cutting 2 rows off the outside and 2 rows off the inside. You might still be over tyred on the front if you have only cut 2 outer rows possibly.
