The best fix for this issue is multiple tunes so you can run a low boost street tune making up to around 450-500 whp and run sport cup2s or equivalent on the street and still be safe and able to “enjoy” the car. Have a glory (hole) tune for dyno shootouts and and a power tune for Texas mile type stuff.


Oh, and multiple sets of wheels and tires.

re-71s are too soft... the r888r's are a harder r compound... this setup will understeer you once the fronts are up to temp
