Hello all.
Been lurking here a while thought I'd kill 2 birds with one stone and say howdy and ask a question about setup for circuit racing.

My 2018 gt has the following setup:
Omp wrc seat
Tein flex z coilovers f/7kg r/ 14kg divorced all adjusted mid setting on dampening adjustment
Whiteline hd f/r roll bars and links med setting front and rear. 30f 25r
Camber f -2.0 rear -1.5 (approx)

Nankang ar1 265/275 r19.

Just completed super sprints event at Sydney motorsport park and started dialing the car in to the above specs. Was Impressed with the difference the roll bars made and all but eliminated alot of my old understeering issues at low mid corner speeds. But I feel it's still got way too much pitch and roll under braking and change of direction lol. Any advice or secret sauce on spring rates and settings. To give me a good base? I've done a lot of google searches and come up with a pretty common recipe for track setup.

-3 degree front camber
Stiff rear bar med front bar
12kg front spring 14kg divorced rear spring.
Tyres sizing from 275r19 up to 305r19

Any advice from the mustang track community would be awesome.Screenshot_20230421-052146.png
