Looks like you've got some understeer there. Try modifying your steering knuckles to add another mounting hole that gives you parallel steering instead of ackerman steering. Then add another one after that for reverse-ackerman (outside tire turns MORE than inside). Formula One uses reverse ackerman to take advantage of the fact that the outside tire in turn is loaded up more and can therefore handle more slip-angle while maintaining grip, while conversely, the inside tire is loaded less and CAN'T handle as much slip angle, so it's better to keep it pointed straighter into the overall direction of travel. The same is true for drift cars; so anything that gets sideways on purpose or loads up one side heavily in a turn can potentially benefit from parallel steering and/or reverse-ackerman. Give it a shot!
@@DirtGearTv Also, try moving your battery (I assume AGM) to the very front to add a bit of natural ballast where you seem to need it a bit. That and moving your fuel cell lower if you can and make the muffler kick up instead of down, or just point relatively straight out to the side and THEN maybe wrap down. I don't want to assume any of that is specifically "easy" but those and the steering change combined sound like a decent weekend project to make a couple moderate tweaks that help balance, CG, and steering traction.
Hope to see it soon. Its Thursday the 12th and I'm at durhamtown. Katrina cabin.
Cool, got a late start but we'll be all around tracks and trails fri,sat,sun 😎
💪😊
This was the first video with less then 20 likes I’ve came across that was actually worth watching 👍

Good insight! Deff a couple of things I'd like to try 👊

Have you ever flipped???😮😮😮
Center of gravity issue , u will feel unstable
While turning u will feel the back pulling u opp way ,
