Default First Time Out

I ran my X6 Squared for the first time at Formby on Sunday and was very pleased with its performance. One thing I did notice was that the front wheel was lifting on turning at the end of the straight, certainly more than my B4 would at the same speed. I have set up the car to match the settings in Ellis's Standard setup sheet and the weight (1750gr) balance is spot on 35/65. So, two questions:
  1. Would fitting a sway bar at the rear help, i.e. is the front lifting perhaps a symptom of too much rear roll?
  2. I have the graphite chassis - would fitting a plastic chassis provide a little more flex and help damp down the lift?
Is there any other obvious action I should consider?
