yes it does but it will also get to the shocks point of no more travel quicker hense make the car react faster. if you look at carpet racing where the grip is very high the shocks are layed down to stop grip roll. grip roll is produce from the edge of the tire biting into the track to much the only way to stop this is to make the car more progressive slowing the reaction of the car down and on initial steering input.

your not getting grip roll but you are getting lots of inital oversteer if the grip was higher you probably would start lifting wheels.

does this make sense
