Hello i am a beginner to asphalt and legend cars and i want to keep up in the corners but when i do, i loop it. Seems to be loose off. I have about 30 laps in the car thus far as of saturday. We are not getting pulled in the straightaway at all so i have no complaints. Right now my coils are rf 300 lf 280 lr 200 rr 200 I put a turn into the right front shock before the heat and it helped, so i put another half turn in the rf before the main and it made no diff. I was told by one fellow to take away two threads on the sway bar. Any help appreciated, this is all new to me. thank you in advance

First; There is no sway bar on a legends car.
Of course, seat time is always a good teacher. With that said, I have some questions to ask.
What racing experience do you have?
What track are you racing at?
Size?
Banking?
Have you scaled your car?
What are your corner weights?
What tire pressures are you running?
What are your ride heights?
Is the rear end square in the chassis, or offset?
Not trying to be rude... But need a little more information to even begin guessing what the issue may be. Front springs seem rather stiff to me. But that is just my opinion. I do know people that run stiff springs. If you do not want to post your current set up; Message me, and we will see where you are at.

Are you running new right side tires and old left side? The difference in cut and wear could cause excessive stagger for your particular set-up. Otherwise I would make sure the rear end is square with the chassis. having a shorter left side wheelbase can cause a loose off condition. I'm no asphalt guy, just a couple thoughts

I've had those springs in my car and I was Tight/Loose meaning It would be ok on entry, and then it wouldn't rotate the corner. I'd have so much wheel in it by the time the car released it would snap loose. I would spin out before I knew what the hell was going on.
I would try 250 LF 275 RF
185 LR 200 RR it is kind of a good spring starting point for asphalt.
See if that helps.
