      Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
      Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
      Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
      Torque is how far you take the wall with you

                I ran the 615's 245 45 17 seem to be ok... I need some help with setting up my suspension and swaybars as the car cant get the rear to pop out of the corners... I heard I took 5th overall which I think is good for a car that is not set up for AutoX..

                      Kevin, you did get 5th in raw times. For future events you should class your car. It would be in SM.

                      PM me for:
                      Sandblasting(I use glass beads)
                      Diesel repairs or performance products.

                        I have hotchkis rear sway bar with 3 adjustments and the front is stock with 2 adjustments Suspension is JIC FLA-2 with spring preload, 12 way dampining and trunk bracing. I want to get rid of oversteer and have the rear end kick out more. I think the front camber plates are -2.

                          Wouldn't oversteer in fact CAUSE the rear to "kick out" more?

                            It is understeering. Not oversteer.

                                    Also try practicing on your own. Barking before turn in, hitting proper apex of the corner, etc. A little driver practice can go a long way. Find an unoccupied parking lot and grab a couple of cones and do to town. I did that back when I had the Miata and I got to learn my car a lot.
