How to reduce spinning at the exit of corners ?
Hi.
I am struggling with spinning cars at exit of corners. This is critical for RWD cars, Group B, RX 1600 cars and particularly this awful Xtrem rally cross cars, which spins even in straight line. I have tried many different setups on cambers, toe, springs, trying as well to avoid dowshifting and too high revs, trying as well keeping high gear ... sometimes it is even worse....whatever...in max attack these cars become unmanageable.

Yestarday I could eventually (and at last :) )establish a WR in spain with the delta S4.on dry tarmac..ohhh my !! how fun this was !!! You'll easily break this WR as I lost several seconds with errors, recovering from spinning by miracle...but still I am happy.
So my question is : on these cars what kind of modifications of those parameters would reduce spinning :
preload?
Spring front and back?
diff lock?
Gear box?
height of cars?
roll bars?
I don't know on group B 4WD cars, the impact of the center diff on such issue....how does this work?

Usually I max negative rear cambers and stay at zeron camber at front, stiffen front springs and roll bars, soften rear springs and roll bar,

Depends on alot of things but. For me the sway bar is very important. To strong and you wont be able to make the turn(understeer) to soft and you will most likely spins if not a 4wd.(oversteer)

Leave throttle or rise gear untill you get grip enough for full throttle, also, dont oversteer your wheel while full throttle.
I use preload at 100 whenever its fwd, 4wd or rwd. But you need pedals for that to work.

I use pedals and wheel but no H shifter and clutch. Although I read that using the clutch to reduce the load on the tyres would reduce spinning...but I can't do that apart from releasing the throttle completely.
What does the preload do in fact...I am not in mechanics sorry.

On cars that seem too prone to oversteer, I use a little bit of rear toe-in, or softening of the rear suspension on cars like the Escort Mk.2 that don't support rear toe adjustment. It usually doesn't take much for me to find a balance I can live with.

If you're struggling so much to find a setup that works for you, then the problem might be PICNIC (Problem In Chair, Not In Car). Try having a slightly lighter right foot.

Make rear suspension looser: weaken anti-roll bar significantly and bump down spring. playing with diff preload can help tame out snap-oversteer when your foot comes off the throttle. (fighting this last part can destabilize the suspension for corner exit)

Differential locks was the key to me. Try min & max settings to find the solutions

Reduce rear LSD braking diff lock percentage if possible, do this if u spin when entering corners while still slightly braking.

Some of the Gr B 4wd cars have quite short wheelbase so that makes them more unstable, there's few of those in other classes too like for example H3 rwd: Renault 5 Turbo
