Symptoms of a blown shock - Andy - 10-26-2007

Okay. Just got back from Shenandoah. What a miserable day. I had to countersteer every turn. Some I got, some I didn't. I asked Gerry Chan to drive the car and he said it was undrivable. He countersteered every turn except he caught all of them. Shen sucks in the rain but never like this. Is crazy oversteer a typical symptom of a blow rear shock?

Here info: I turned the fronts from full stiff to 1.5 turns. The rears were full soft and I dropped the tires down to 27psi front, 29 psi rear and still nothing.
