I understand, but there is no quick fix in your situation. You can change it all you want, the difference will be relatively minor. I mean the car will feel different, but it won't drive much faster. You start stiffening the front bar, your car isn't going to turn. You start stiffening the rear bar, the back end is going to twitch everywhere.

You have to learn sooner or later. As soon as you feel comfortable, hit the button and call it a day. You are not going to make any run without the VDC kicking on unless you run dirt slow. The system is so intrusive that you are not going to be able to do anything.

Yea I was trying to admit fault in my late braking which led to multiple driving inputs(bad). I know thats not the way to drive. My focus here was to determine swaybar settings based on my low grip tires and springs only suspension mod. So I should increase front stiffness and leave the rear on medium setting?

And when it comes to the VDC, my concern is wheel spin on launch and corner exits. Hopefully the track is a safe distance from curbs and trees and I'll feel better. I'd like to make a run without the VDC engaging to boost my confidence. I wouldnt mind spinning out and learn my boundaries if I had a safe place to do it.
