Hey guys I have a question for the fast guys: I went racing last night and ran the best race I ever ran, But when I went into the corners I lost a little speed. I figured I needed to loosen the car up but wasnt for sure, the car is good gone in and coming out but feels and looks tight in the middle. I was in the lead aand had a 2 second lead and the other faster driver was catching me in the corners. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
P.S - I have a customworks aggresor!!!!!!!

what type of track? what is your set up? I ask because there is a number of things that can be done.

The track is a flat track with tight corners. The car is centered/centered with silver left rear spring, olive right rear spring, wolfe reds on the front, pearl left rear tire, white right rear tire, silver/gray right front, and white left front. Center shock is a yellow integy spring 2nd hole down on the shock tower, side shocks are in the 3rd hole down. caster blocks the pins are in the 3rd hole down both sides, with the right side being 5 degrees and left side being 2 degrees. The wheel base in in the medium position. Rear track width is 7 3/4, battery tray is about .250 thou. forward, and the t-plate is the kit fiberglass one. I am running a 06 protoform dodge charger with wing level with back built in spoiler and rooof level and not using the extra spoiler. If need any more info let me know.

What does it do that makes you say GOOD IN, GOOD out, BAD middle?? the turn radius at platinum is so tight that Im not sure how you could say that.. Greags car is hooked up in the corner.. Last time I saw your car run it still looked tight full raduius... you seemed to use MORE WHEEL INPUT than normal to make the turn.. What I do is turn the dual rate down to where at Full wheel input your car will just make the turn(LOW SPEED) .. then run a full speed lap that way.. you will see where the car is lacking then..
move your LR in about .040 and your RR out the same. and maybe even your LF out .020

Use Kenwood's advice, and run a gray black combo on the Right rear. I don't know how a silver/gray relates, but I use a VERY soft right front tire and very little steering.

ohio there are alot of things that that can be done first thing I would try is to work on them chassis first. you can stiffen the rear side springs try like a blue LR and a silver RR. next thing would be the castor. try like 0 LF 2 RF. and last lower the wing. the HD charger has alot of rear down force.
few more questions. where do you have the RF. how it the rear axle spaced? is your LR out from the LF? is the RR out from the RF?
