Talking Excessive grip roll

All,
this is probably a well covered topic, but week in week out as the indoor carpet track grip improves over the course of the night so does the frequency of grip roll occurs. Now just a couple of basic questions...

Will stiffer/softer front springs reduce grip roll?
Will stiffer/softer rear pod springs reduce grip roll?
Will more weight bias towards front of car reduce grip roll?
Will having a torsional bar across the wishbones reduce grip roll?

I have super glued the tyre edges (Med Japs pinks) and reduced the EPA for steering and also slowed the DR of the servo. Super glueing the tyres brings on masses of understeer but as the super glue fades grip roll increases. The front tyres are trued to have approx 3-4mm of tread.

Rear pod droop is approx 1-2mm. I seem to get it set up well one week then the track changes and the problems reoccur.

Any help suggestions would be appreciated

Si
