That makes sense considering the increased traction provided by the slick.

I tend to drive off the rear wheel, I don't trail break much. Probably just how I learned and the fact that I couldn't heal-toe shift when I first started lapping event. By necessity I had to get all my braking done before corner entry. My driving style probably induces some of the oversteer situation.

I changed too much at one time to really tell, but a nice icing on the cake for this is that my 30mph part throttle shudder that I've dealt with ever since installing the 4l80e is completely gone. It's likely the ride height change being more favorable U-joint working angles. I do miss how slammed the car was prior to this change, but even I know that with the stock subframe and suspension pickup points, these cars stop working correctly if you get them too low.
