[V8Vairs] Wheels and Tires

[Joel McGregor]

I was thinking backwards again.  I guess it causes the outside tire to lean the correct direction and the inside tire to lean the wrong direction.  Eats tires faster but makes the important outside tire stick better.  Wouldn't it still be better (but more difficult) to run 0 caster and change the control arm geometry to tilt the tire?

More "negative" caster, that is. Not sure how negative/positive is
calculated.The lower strut is pushed forward. This causes the tire to "lean"  into
the turn, as well as "turn" into the turn. It also increases steering
effort, because you are "lifting" the front end as you shift the weight to the
side of the tires.
