Could it be that the weight in front of that line relates to the weight behind 
it?
So if i had the Distance BB-EOS fixed and then start to move the FWA closer to 
BB - thereby increasing the trail - , things would get better?
This would suggest that pythons with smaller wheel would behave better, because 
you have some flexibility to put FWA closer to BB.

Additionaly, i would guess that the mass of the drivers body, before and behind 
that line add to the equation as well.
