Just be aware with that level of grip, you might start bending lower / steering arms. If the steering wheel doesn't come back to where it should be driving in a straight line, after some full on hard cornering, you'll know what's happened.

2 wheels is all that's needed lol ...full story coming soon!
Now that giving it some in the corner...
All you need do now is drop the back to avoid that.
Would you consider slimmer at the rear?
That is a good picQuote:

After the gates opened we had to unload our cars. Fortunately we found a nice shady place because the weather forecast announced up to 36°.

how come you run front tow at 0? have you tried tow out? we run vxr race cars at 2 total tow out so the leading wheel help pull the car round the corner. would highly recommend plated diff, makes the quaife diff feel crap after having a plated diff. when you watch the car in a video from behind it looks like its 4wd where the diff drags the car round the corner and the grip levels are unreal. we are running 300hp and 340lb torque people say i bet that wheels spins out of the corners with that diff it just grips, and the slicks help as well lol
After a short briefing and two warm-up laps we could get cracking.
It was open pitlane, we were allowed to drive as much as we wanted from 9:00-12:00 and 13:00-17:00
1. Drive
I began slowly, get the tires to temperature. At least i knew the track from playing computer games lol so i knew how to get along.

2. Drive
Slowly, the advantages and disadvantages of the Corsa showed. Advantage is certainly the grip in the corners, the chassis and the steering geometry let the car drive like on rails through the tight curves. On the straights performance could be better
At about 2min50 I get some dust thrown in my face for tailgating lol

3. Drive
Short ride with ugly end. Before lunch we decided to do a few laps.
Unfortunately my mates luck ran out and a rose joint broke during braking on a curve and the wheel pushed itself into the wheelarch :( i was shocked as you can hear at the end of the video...

Our lunch brake included load the broken car on the trailer...
...so afternoon, i had to get alone on the track.

At the last trip I dared myself to the limit ... although I must admit that the limit of my strenght is the first thats reached lol
