Anyone picking up strong push going into corners in demo? Trying to
carry any speed at all into the corners seems to cause this, even with
strong brake and turn-in, on the advanced setup. Or am I just going to
have change driving style?
The advanced setting for brake bias is set to 80% at Richmond if I
remember correctly. I dropped it down to 67% to get more braking from
the rear. The 80% setting was just too tame for my tastes. The lower
setting will brake faster but also requires some throttle blipping to
keep the rear end from snapping around. If you don't have separate brake
and throttle then you can't do this.
Also try adjusting the front camber, the default of +3.5 and -3.5 can
be brought to +3 and -3 (or thereabouts). Use the front tire temps after
a few laps to see where the temps are. You want the inner temps to be a
little higher than the rest, something to do with camber thrust.
If push is still a problem, try dropping the front spring rates a few
hundred pounds. I haven't played too much with springs and dampers yet,
but that ought to help some.

I have it too, it's a mix of too much throttle and also learning the track
and a whole new way of driving.

Try increasing wheel lock to negate the effect of the speed sensitive
steering. That helped a lot for me.
You can make it oversteer via the setup options, but you might not like the
result. That advanced setup actually feels pretty good to me. It's important
not to want to force a roadracing style of driving on an oval. Chasing an
apex when it doesn't want to go there is not a good idea. You will need to
adapt to the addagio of subserving anything and everything to corner speed.
Remember: the first 3rd or the corner is wide.

Welcome to 4000lb+ cars! I assume you have watched enough Nascar races to
see how early they let off the gas, and coast into the corners. Very little
braking required on most tracks. If you have a GPL background, it will take
a while before you figure out that rushing into the corners will only burn
up your RF tar.
Good Luck.

uhhh....where did the extra 600+ lbs come from? WC cars weigh about
3400 lbs.
