Nice runs... I agree with you, but I am not experienced in AutoX so my set-up doesn't necessarily translate to those types of events with rapid and repeated... I believe your car is also a daily driver so it would be difficult to set-up your car like mine anyway. If you have Eibach springs and adjustable Koni Sport dampers, try this at your next event...
Since your runs are relatively short and are multiple tight turns back-to-back, your tires have minimal time to come-up to temperature, so run 2 lbs higher in the front tires than in the rear. Realign the car with neutral toe in the rear (0.00) and negative toe in the front. (-0.20) each side for a total toe of (-0.40) on the front. Adjust your rear Koni's 1/2 turn SOFTER from the complete FIRM setting. And the front Koni's 1/2 turn FIRMER from the complete SOFT setting. This will help you carve turns MUCH quicker, but will start to initiate the T/C more often...
Run with the T/C on during your first event, then run with your T/C off during the second event and see which setting works better for you...
Minutes before your event get the car away from the crowd and do a series of spins / turns / skid pad stuff to heat-up the tires... If they let you...
