In theory my car should understeer on power (the diff fully locks on power) so I've tried to make it "pointy" to compensate. I's now neutral mid corner and is a joy on full power exit. I would have thought this would make turn-in great, but I have two probelms. First, at a hairpin, I can't get the front end to come across at all until I get off the brakes and get the car settled. As soon as it's moving I can add power and all gets back to normal. The second is that in the very high speed entry at the first corner at Snett, I get initial turn-in, but then the front end tends to wash wide and its all a bit of a balancing act until a bit of speed scrubs off. Although that might be just a property of that particular corner.

Any ideas?
