Common trait of FWD cars when pushed hard. It suggests that when you back off, there is a significant 'weight transfer' to the front, reducing grip at the rear and resulting in a rear that wants to swing like a pendulum. I think it might help if you stiffened the front, by increasing spring rates or better shockers.... Also check to see that the full travel of the rear suspension is available at the rear. Sometimes incorrectly matched rear shock absorbers may have been fitted and these may limit the full amount of droop available. It happens with unusual cars (read Corona Mk2). This can make for 'interesting' handling....travelling backwards at over 100kph is very unnerving. I suggest you pose this one on PF in their handling section. [Report message to a moderator]
