Kart,

A suggestion from left field: your rear shocks may be a little too short.

Left field means I have a Jag rear, not BMW.

Having said that, my symptom was the same: in hard cornering the car’s rear would skip sideways - kinda like the pogo-ing you referred to.

I substituted shocks that were about 1” longer and that problem went away.

Shot in the dark,

Tom
