Default tm2 first drive

I had a similar expereince to Derby Dan ,
My first run with the TM2 with pretty much kit set up apart from Front oil ae 37.5, kit pistons with 2 holes drilled to 1.3mm,kit springs ,kit castor (25 i think)
Rear. ae 30 oil, 2mm restrictor inside shock, kit pistons with 2 holes drilled to 1.3mm,
Car was easy to drive fast and consistent and i had my best ever runqualifying p2. My average lap is now what my fastest used to be !! & quicker than my 4wd.
The only problem i had ( this is a new kit build and first run) was the slipper overheating and loosening off in the qualifying runs, i eventually cured this completely by fitting a Durango 85t spur and AE hd slipper pads, perfect now.
As for the drive i am now looking for slightly more steering when going from a slow hairpin right to a fast hairpin left i am getting some power on understeer .This is on a high grip indoor astro track with an 18sec lap time.
