gjm 3258 Report post Posted June 9, 2014 Interesting but very specific to type of car and use. misses the relationship between static camber and caster to give dynamic camber frequently used in a modern road car . Toe out and ackerman is again very type and purpose specific - they a re trying to achieve very different outcomes than a road car or club car. Same with camber settings - fine if all you are doing is racing around corners in a light weight car at high speed. Very different story when you are going from 30kmh to 300 kmh Explanation of rake again is very type specific Doesn't mention roll centre heights / rake which is really important for a performance road car as this can be adversely affected with lowering cars. Is there anything online (on Youtube?) which does cover this? (I'll look another time, but if anyone has a link, let's be 'aving it! ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
