OK thanks ESP, how Caster works as a performance setting was what I was wondering. I knew it caused the self centering, but hadn't realized it caused the camber to change as you move the steering wheel. Now I can see now how it would. Seems like in a turn caster would cause the outside tire to go to more neg camber, while the inside tire would go to more positive camber, exactly what you would want for turning. From this I would conclude that caster might be even more important than camber in autox.

Yes it is important.
But for us, since we have a limited amount of negative camber available, camber is more important. For instance I'm pretty sure around -1.9 is about the right amount of negative camber for MY roll resistance and caster. On a stock vehicle or with softer springs, the caster isn't going to get you close to that, so maxing camber out first is most important. |
