Street/track alignment for 100% stock suspension
First track weekend with my M2C coming up later this month, and after seeing how unstable the rear end can get with high speed cornering, I would like to see if there's a way to "tune" that out with toe or other alignment tweaks.
I don't plan on camber plates, because I will be going with MCS 1-ways later this year or next. |

Maybe it just depends on the track, but I saw someone post a video yesterday of his car breaking at high speed on a sketchy part of buttonwillow. I'm not a super advanced driver, so stuff like that still makes me a bit nervous.

The only thing you can do is play around with tire pressures.. your instability maybe due to incorrect tire pressures/cornering speed/braking in corners etc... suggest speaking to an experienced track driver for advice. i was able to rip out really fast times out of the box from the show room in stock set up. Nothing wrong with the car |

I think you're referencing the video posted on the M2 FB group. If you watch the video closely, the driver upshifts as he has the steering wheel turned slightly right into an uphill turn and the rear stepped out as he got back on the gas. You typcially want to have braking or shifting inputs done in a straight line before a turn in order to keep the car balanced. The shift most likely shifted the weigh forward and then applying power while the rear was unloaded and already turning right just made the rear let go a bit.
