When I lowered the height to -5, the car seemed like it was always trying to spin. Maybe the track is just too bumpy to go lowrider. Looking back I see I'd put on a couple minor mods to bring my 09 ZR1 up to 703HP, rear wing at maximum (plus all the aero items) and I ran Sports Soft tires. All that made for a very nice balance (I'd ditch the weight adjustment.) I also tried it with tighter settings on the fully adjustable suspension - it "felt" more stable & planted, but I overtook the lead car much, MUCH earlier using the Sports kit (first 1/4 of the race vs. the straightaway near the end!)
And don't forget - Nurburgring is just plain HARD at first! It takes a lot of driving to learn where the sneaky little "traps" are waiting that try to sling you off the track. I started off spending as much time in the grass/sand/walls as on the pavement, now I rarely mow the lawn (cough/mumble... more than once per lap.)
