If it was indeed driver error it was likely a case of going too slow in and getting on the gas too early/hard. Without messing with the traction arms/toe curve I am going to say it's likely not due to the small toe-in.
Same tires front and back. AD08's. It was gradual and controllable. The turn is was what seem sharp and rear rotated easly. I was running a 265 up front went to a 275. Braking was more than fine. Maybe it's such a dramatic change on all levels that made it feel wild. I was definitely slow in a trying to push it out hard. I guess my nervous are a wreak from my incident. I've been beating myself up for months about it so........
