    1/4 mi. Asphalt FWD set-up questions...

    Okay, time to ask for some help...

    We're having a dificult time getting the car to roll into the turns without a push... From the center off it's way better than the turn in! Right now it has the following corner weights:

    LF 744lbs.
    RF 595lbs.
    LR 353lbs.
    RR 465lbs.

    Total weight: 2157lbs.

    Left weight % = 50.8%
    Front weight % = 62.1%
    Cross weight % = 44%

    LF Camber 0 deg.
    RF Camber -2 deg.
    LR Camber -3 deg. <--- This should be positive, but it isn't loose, do I still change it?
    RR Camber -1 deg.

    Front toe = 1/8" out
    Rear toe = 1/16" out

    LF Caster = +1.5deg.
    RF Caster = +2deg.

    The car has an open diff, and sits here with the same size tire all the way around the car.


    Any ideas?

    It might help to know what kind of car it is. If it is a Mustang, like most MiniStocks, it shouldn't have negative camber on both rear wheels. That would require a bent axle.
    Oval racing helps you unwind because you race counter clockwise.
