i didn't even know a thread like this existed!!! i was actually thinking about starting something similar the last couple days, so thanks highrev1 for bumping it back up to the top!
lots of good readin', i must say.
here's a topic to wrap your head around:
in respects to running negative camber and its effect on braking distance/abilities - (only straight line braking under consideration for this questioning)
which is "better"?
- stiffer susp., less extreme pitch under braking, running around -2.0* neg. camber.
- slightly softer susp., more pitch (nose dive) under braking, running around -2.0* neg. camber.
- with the realization that with compression there is an increase in neg. camber, would it be more advantageous (strictly in regards to contact patch size) to run a setup that allows less compression so as not to bring forth more neg. camber while braking?
- would it be "better" to run more static neg. camber with less susp. travel, or a bit less static neg. camber and with a greater amount of susp. travel?
- do we take into account the contact patch we can achieve at full dive? or do we compromise and attempt to achieve a better contact patch at around half compression?
....i've asked a lot of questions.
...feel free to pick and choose which ones you feel more prone to answer, or take on the whole big kahuna burger if you see fit. :smile:
it's way past my bedtime, haha, see y'all in the light of tomorrow.
