Wow that is some power. Don't know on a good setup but I would start with running it low and stiffening it up a bunch!

I just begin my setup for carpet on rubber tire(4 x boe tye), but so far the basic setting work great on the front (but i had some weight, 10oz), I just ad some stiffenes on the rear shock. I also add toe in in the back. so far it work well.

The std. setup from any driver should work well. I have a track called fastcats near me and they basically started the offroad carpet thing. The Guys there tried hundreds of tires and there was one set that were about 1-1.5 sec faster than all the others... and need no setup changes other than a lower ride height. These tire are schumacher mini pins in blue compound.

I would try reducing the kickup on the front which will lessen the caster. Less caster will let the truck get into the corner better and shouldn't hook as bad coming out. You can place .030" shims under the two front screws of the front pivot block.
