Tires are probably the single biggest performance issue in Autocross. Suspension mods can and do provide great help, assuming one actually understands all the dynamics of suspension components they are trying to change (I sure don't).
Plus with a lot of drivers (me included) its hard to tell if overdriving didn't cause a 'driver induced' understeer event. There isn't any car part that can prevent a driver from driving too fast and braking too late.
Actually I'm going to change my leading statement. Tires are the second biggest performance issue in Autocross. The loose nut behind the wheel is the first .......
