But with that said it is something that happens with the stock suspension when run with stickier tires and/or aggressive pad compounds. Sure you can drive around it, lower pressures, change pad compounds, etc... But I think it may be happening because the springs are a little soft and the nose is diving, thus there is less weight on the rear tires. Then the tail wags a little. Get some real coilovers with stiffer springs and it will most likely go away.........you know you want them anyway!
agreed.. its a common thing. disheartening but fun!
