Robin is beyond his tender years here....

Cutting away the BS the way your car handles on the road/track is dependant on how much (and the quality of) rubber you have on the road at any one time.

So geo/tracking and tyre pressures are the way forward in the short term.

I'm sure lowering the COG would help too, but whether thats a great idea on a FWD road car? i'll leave that to Robin
