I experience two quirks with the rearend of my car. The first is similar to what you describe. It is most noticeable on the track just past the apex on a turn that requires a sharp turnin. The rearend does kind of a "jog". It comes right back but is a little unnerving. I have 17" wheels and the tires do have some sidewall flex which is what I have attributed most of this to.

Secondly, upon very hard acceleration the backend kicks to the side as I shift from first to second gear. You can really feel the torque from the drive wheel and again can be a little bit unnerving. I attribute this to the lack of a limited slip diffential. I have contemplated whether a LSD would also help with the first issue I described as well. Any thoughts from those who have LSD on how it changes the rearend feel? Is LSD a waste or would it help?
