Re: Dope status

You want the widest tires you can run without rubbing or hurting acceleration, then you want the most negative camber you can run without hurting the braking and straight line grip.

So in actuality camber adjustments, whether it be positive or negative does in fact help handling

What?? Is that for a circle track car?

They did end up putting 245's on the front for that time-attack.

Re: Dope status

I've come to accept the fact that as silly as it may be to me, some people like it. I'm just trying to make sense of it. What is the point of putting a tiny tire on an 11" rim and then having it hang 3" out the side of the car?
