What works for one car may not for another. Like fighting irish said, the SS understeers at about mid-corner to corner exit on tight corners. Corner entry and larger radius corners or higher speed corners/sweepers the car is fairly neutral. This has been my experience so far, at least. This car will benefit from a front bar to help control the front camber curve (tire contact patch - grip) and shift some load to the rear tires for better corner exit throttle-on grip. Add in some front negative camber (-1.5 to -2.0 is doable). A rear sway bar, I think, could work, but it's an attempt to make the car rotate at the expense of rear grip and making the car unstable outside of tight corners.
