What speeds are you running in the corners?? You might be getting back on the gas too soon

Most importantly, which Atlanta is it? If it is the C***te "clone" you may want to add a round of wedge to it (increase right side weight) or maybe try lowering the right front tire pressure a pound or two. It may help, it may not. If it is loose as you get bak into the gas, add wedge. If it is loose all the time, you may want to do both.

maybe a little push going in, going out sometimes it's right on sometimes a little loose. What's funny is that even if the car handles correctly, i.e. not loose in the middle of the turn, the speed still drops. Thanks dougw

Play with right side tire pressures for the "entrance of >the turn" and left sides for the "exiting the turns".
Actually it's loose if anything. What I did was move the weight forward and now I'm doing 181's. I think I can work from there to get mid 180's with better line and gas control. My front weight bias seems more forward then most people but I don't think I have a nascar driving style. I think it's better suited for icr2 since my karting experience has always be on/off the throttle with very little coasting. thanks again dougw
