Why wouldn't you want to toe in? Wouldn't just the force alone pull it out?


Also... I would run camber 0.. You aren't turning..


Also, is that negative or positive camber?

um, do you know what happens to the wheels when you take the weight off them by accelerating???

zero camber, in my opinion, is not a good idea, i wouldn't want to go 200mph on the very outer edges of my volkswagon tires.

actually, i wouldn't want to go 200mph, like scott's race car, on the full surface of a volkswagon tire, go get some drag tires if you don't have them scott.
