As I learn to drive the car better, I can avoid this. Sometimes. Hopefully adjustable shocks, when they finally come out, will help with this somewhat. But for now it's just part of the package that I have to live with and I try to make up the time in other parts of the course. Like slaloms, where the Fit excels. There's a reason, after all, that the Fit beat Ferrari and Corvette Z06 in slalom times in many of the car magazine tests! I can take nearly any slalom flat-out, while the faster cars have to back off or risk spinning out.

Have you tried disconnecting the front antisway bar by removing the link between shock and bar?
