Thumbs up

Increase rear toe out, as well as spring rate, proper tires do wonders as well.

The Exige makes a lovely rally car!!
Very oversteery, but in a controllable way, I spanked teh new fugly WRC with 10 seconds or so in the tahiti maze with it.

In general, to improve handling (assuming you have fully adjustable suspension).

Ride height: minimum front and rear.
Spring rates: increase significantly front and rear.
Anti-roll bars: increase a bit front and rear.
Camber: can try increasing a little.

Greg,

I've got a massive notepad FAQ thing on GT3 and it's got some ideal set ups and advice on generally how to get the best out of your car etc. (I think the Scoob is in there....I know the Skyline is).

Do you want me to send you a copy?

Always take the anti spin and traction control down to 1 each.

LOL,

The TVR Speed Six, max'd up to 700bhp is also 'fun' with no ASM or TCS switched on.

2 Laps of Trial Mountain and I'm down to the discs !

1000 hp Supra MkIV on hard slicks is great fun as well.

I've just raced the GT-One with 1 degree of rear toe out... SIDEWAYS as soon as yo apply the loud one.
