Posting your set up numbers would help the guessing that most will do on here…..
There could be multiple reasons why you are feeling the RR being overloaded….

With to much positive LF camber being one of them.

It's better with the whole setup..cause sometimes it can be one thing that correlates with another. For example left front camber is too high, but some run extra left side weight with that higher camber and it negates the loading effect but increases the pull to the left

Unless your turning more or steering more center off:
You can only have too much weight starting >>at<< the center if you already have too much weight on the RR before center.
Mechanical fix will be to start getting rid of weight on the RR sooner.
A timing problem.
If your turning >>more<< center off and then later straightening it out as in post #2 fix your entry.
Sounds like your chopping off the corner some on entry.

Does the kart start off good then fad, and gets loose on exit ?

Sir please post whole setup, track description, kart you're driving, and what class you're in
Track is an extremely tiny bullring
Clone 360
Burris tires
Cross 63
Left 60
Front 46
I was thinking potentially too soft of tires. Seems to be an issue later at night in feature
Yes typically is decent to start a run in the feature then as it goes on it gets more into the RR. Only seems to be an issue in feature.

And rear wheel spacing from inside edge of wheels to the frame. ?

I can tell ya right now without the other set up numbers that your running too low of cross with that much left. General rule of thumb I never recommend running lower than 66 when I am needing that much left. I don’t care what chassis you are on…… most chassis built these days are generally 1-1.5% of recommended set up numbers.
Once you get a “basic” set up underneath you it’s all tires….. usually I am only changing camber and rear stagger from track to track. 1/8 mile to a 1/5 mile……

Agreed! Especially if you have a bigger upper torso…. VCG is often forgotten and most still don’t understand it…… it matters!
