I watched in slow mo...and i think either stiffen right up or new spring rates...strange as dialed in on 13/4 this year on tyre combo and felt real good only difference being ambiet temps..poss shock oil thinned out in heat...no idea what the bc coilover springs rates are tbh..

Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.

re japi

I think you need stiffer springs. I reckon that it is not dampers fault... Do you have adjustable damper/coilover? If so, what kind? If you can, I think that you should try and stiffen it abit...

I like you Jarno! Alot.
Been great having Clives onboard footage i can see she needs work...and i found out spring ratios are 10 front 8 rear...ive got about 8 clicks of 30 off hard so some adjustment left...and springs are available so could go 12 10 front rear...

Lol right back at you J!

True. Seeing car how it behaves its totally different than gut fealing. Helps you to see possible problems and fix it...

Well, I cant understand how handling would have changed in a year, as you said in other thread... Coilover leak or simply need for rebuild/service. Maybe stiffening coilover would help a little. Howerer,  I think that leaning that much is because of too soft spring. Or coilover is really really gone...
