I think Chris said it, you have a lot of sway bar up front, I'd start with
that.
You have a pretty low roll center in a GT6. It seems the only way to make a
1" sway bar work well on a GT6 is with fairly massive tires, but I could be
wrong.
Set the camber with tire temps and once you get the front to bite then you
can balance front & rear. A little toe out made a big difference in the TR4 on
turn in.

If you have understeer then your front end is the weak spot to work at.
Try to get more front end grip before you sacrifice back end grip.
More camber, different tire pressure, softer sway bar, more or less toe in,
weight distribution to the rear.
Cheers

Betreff: [Fot] GT6 suspension set-up
I'm contemplating suspension changes to reduce the overall understeer
tendency of my car, and am interested in hearing what set-ups other
GT6 racers are running. B I think I want to reduce roll at the rear,
either through a stiffer rear bar and/or spring. B The rear has a 5/8"
bar on it, spring of unknown specs, and a 1" front bar and 550 lb
springs.
I'm particularly interested in what, if any, rear bar you are running
and how it is mounted to the body/frame, and the rear spring specs.
