Anti-Dive

whats too much?, too little?, pro's and con's, whats the basic theory?

When I asked this of a well known chassis builder, we got into a discussion or pro-dive, anti-dive and zero-dive. After a lengthy discussion, it was basically stated that with the small tires on a modified and the inconsistent surface of a dirt track, that "some" anti-dive was fine. He felt thru their experimentation with it, there was not enough tire to create pro-dive and anti-dive was a safe given.

My theory was to use pro-dive on the RF and anti-dive on the LF to promote roll and allow a stiffer spring on the RF than currently used so you could maintain better control of the roll. He felt the idea had merit but the small tires killed the idea.

That said, mimic a production vehicle with your upper a-frame angles and go race.

The theory I heard was to run the A-arm level with no dive so that the springs and shocks do all the work. Many ways to go about it.
