Powerslide....we have no rules on our measurement.
To me it makes sense that turning the left front/pulling it back would serve the same purpose as turning/moving the right front forward to make a car turn a little better.
mastersbilt....the chassis builder I spoke with a IMIS said he personally really liked moving the right front out an inch on larger/banked tracks because he felt that the car scotched better on the right front and turned easier in the muddy/tacky conditions. He then said that it would hurt him if the track slicked off so he would make other adjustments to compensate. He also mentioned lower his rear percentage when sticking the right front out further.
Whether it works or not I haven't tried it but he took home many trophies last year & it certainly got me thinking.
If you alter the wheel rate enough(moving wheel out with geometry) to change the car's attitude, then yes, I buy that example and have seen that first hand.
