How about a little toe-in?  I apologize if that's too obvious, but you
didn't mention it.

I have the linearity slider about 3/4 to the right and usually 16-18:1
steering ratio w/NSPro wheel depending on track.

If your having problems mostly out of the corners try getting back on the
gas a bit easier and possibly reducing the number of clutches.  If the car
is overly twitchy during steady state at speed down the straight you could
add a bit more toe-in (at the expense of speed), experiment with the front &
rear sway bars, stiffening the front and/or rear.
