Those of you who have tracked the Z might be able to fill me in on this question.

When cornering briskly (a 70 mph interchange sweeper) if I hit a bump the front stays planted but the rear steps out aggressively when it gets light at the top of the bump. My other cars (04 T-Bird and 11 Volvo XC60, both IRS) take the corner with much less drama. Is this a toe steer or dampening issue or perhaps something else? Your thoughts would be appreciated.
