Got my car nearly setup just having a problem with the rear stepping out as you come on the power after a corner, this is on the slippy floor part of the track (although that is most of the track ) my setup on the back at present is

0 degree camber
3 degree per side toe in
22mm ride height
5.5 turn spring
50 wt oil
kit piston
middle hole on rocker

any help or suggestions appreciated

Add some more toe-in, soften the oil a little.

Are there many jumps? What tyres are you using?

BIG jumps?

Spikes suit the Pred better than pins.

Try what I suggested, let me know how it goes.
