Yes and no.
We could camber those front wheels in 3.5 degrees to reduce resistance, but Brandie puts out so much power it shouldn't matter. If we are looking for a 10th like the Camaro vs Ford GT it could be the difference maker. Everything we have done suspension wise has been for maximum stability and safety. We have been very conservative and it shows in you high speed runs. Should we go after the last 10Th? The other side of this is we use the camber plates to improve the SAI. The change in SAI improves the steering feel. It is similar to a caster increase, but better. I am searching for the right words and can't quite find them. Caster can be darty at high speeds. SAI isn't. That is as close as i can come to the right way to describe it. The third way to look at it is you have every other cool thing under your hood you absolutely have to have these |

The drag strip is like sniffing glue, it's cheap, it's a decent buzz, it doesn't last long and they are all the same. Road racing is like China White Heroin, the buzz is stronger, the high lasts for hours, it's extremely addictive and they are all different. I can't wait for my next Track fix.
