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

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. -- Dan, Smokin_D on TEN, http://www.smokinhq.com Home of Smokin_D's Race Billboard >>OK, now I'm to the point where I seem to have more trouble crashing in the >>straights than in corners.
