I may need to go back to putting more aggressive compound in the rear for HPDEs.
My car does the same, so I guess maybe it's a quirk of the 1. Could be something to do with the short wheelbase and forward-biased weight distribution. There's also a nanny that will force the brakes to the threshold, which makes the car feel unstable and unpredictable. See this: http://www.onelapx1.com/blog/how-to-...w-actually-fun
