Can you post your setup as it is difficult to make suggestions without knowing what you are running at the moment?

Cut a row off spikes off the outside and inside, on the rears.

That's the sum of my knowledge.

Then you will have to post up your full setup and let the experts have a go.

Cutting stuff off is all BIG HANS ever taught us!!

Maybe watch others on the track were your rolling and see if their rolling or taking a smoother line.

Then Cut more spikes Off!!

you will need to post up your setup and take it from there.
saying what tires your running doesnt really help if your car is setup all wrong.

thanks

I've got two rules of thumb that work for me; if it rolls at initial turn in, stiffen the front slightly because the car will be pitching and picking a wheel up.

If it rolls mid-corner, remove spikes and/or adjust camber because the car's digging in. Shock angles can help here, as can longer links on the rear, but one step at a time....

Be interested to know if it works for you!

Move shock bottoms out, firmer springs, lower ride height
, fit anti roll bar, widen track, 2deg camber
