Re: Setup wet slick track

A little more stagger would definitely help the middle of the corner and the loose off may be because you have so much wheel in the corner to get it to turn in the middle. I would fix the middle then see what I had off. But as the track dries out you need to take the stagger back out of it. JMO

Re: Setup wet slick track

Maybe put a little more rear-steer to loosen it up for practice and take it out a little at a time as the track dries out until you get it where it is good back to where you like it on the dry-slick. Also, try dropping the air in your left rear. Maybe put a touch more brake in the left front.
