You can increase resistance to steering input with a quicker rack.

If you are interested in grip, then remember that increased positive castor lifts the contact patch. Don't go too far. I have taken castor out of my front suspension and had the front end grip go up.

However, while one can quote rules, effects, and guidlines, you never know until you try.

I have thrown away all the 100's of CAD suspension simulations that I did over the years on this car and others, they can lead you down the wrong path.

Subject: [F500] Caster - What is the optimum setting?
Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2006 14:02:43 EDT

For autocrossing, I would like to gather input for where to set caster  -
balancing stiffness of steering input versus grip in the corner. I thank you
for your kind help.

Jim
