Any ideas folks?

Kart is really unstable unless braking in an absolute straight line (not possible at my main track on several corners that lead into each other).

Set up with maximum rear width, 3 seat stays, and 3rd bearing in. Standard camber and caster, and no rear bar. Front uses one 5mm spacer inside on both sides, so it's not over-jacking.

It's better with the rear torsion bar in, but then doesn't release out of slow corners.

Brake is solid, no warp in disc, it completely lacks feel, but I'm getting used to it (anyone recommend alternative pads to soften the feel a bit?).

Having played around with the rear setting I'm considering taking some caster out, so that it's not tipping the kart so much when there's a small amount of lock on while braking, but suspect that's going to upset the good balance it has on the track.
