Re: What causes heavy steering at racing speeds

Ahhh Frank...... That's no challenge!! Who wants a car that's easy to drive? Takes away all the excitement and surprises! It's much more satisfying to tame an unpredictable wild beast than it is to lead Daisy the affable house cow. 'course with Daisy you might live to tell the tale.........

Trevor, are you suggesting the problem could possibly be something basic like the inclination of the roll axis? Possibly another problem generated from the rear of the car?

I take the point about idle speed, if it's too low it makes the car more difficult to drive around the pits That's why I went for the Ackerman instead, along with the overpaid pit crew .

Cheers
