tm2 setup

[mgdannyk]

right peeps
I bought one of the first batch tm2s and set t up as per manual, we race on high grip carpet with a few wooden jumps, the track changes every 6 weeks the first track the car was awsome and i was only .5 sec a lap off the lads thats been racing for yrs, track change 1 = very inconsistant ,it had a long sweeping bend flowed by a long straight to a sharp bend, the car would wash out mid way through the sweeper no matter what i did i was just loosing time constantly, i did finish 3rd in series tho
2nd track change= long straight to a sharp 180 switchback, on braking and turn in the car dives in with far too much grip on entry (at the front) and tips over,on the slow secions the car is supurb, i just feel i am chasing my tail ive had a lad look at it and he cant explain whats happening, i have tried all the setups on here to no evail
cheers danny

I'm not saying this is the answer, but what weight oil have you got in the diff, or have you checked the oil level..? Could it be be underfilled or 'too' light oil so you are overrotating the back end..?

Would need to see it, but it does sound diff related to me too
