Camber/Castor/Toe

[sclemow]

Hi All

Does anyone have a good starting point for a fast road setup mini on 5x10 wheels, it has 1.5deg fixed negative camber bottom arms, adjustable tie bars and rear adjustable camber.

I'd like to set it up so that it is responsive, and has a good turn in, but don't want it to be eating tires either!

Any starting points for :
Front Toe
Front Castor
Front Camber
Rear Toe
Rear Castor
Rear Camber

Obviously at the front with fixed negative camber arms you can only adjust either camber or castor and the other one ends up as it ends up, it would be good to have an idea of what it should be though.

Cheers

good starting points, but youre driving styel dictates the end result. youre best off starting around standard mumbers.

Front Toe 1/16" out
Front Castor. set the bars to std legnth if you have adjustable ones and no way of setting, to be honest you wont beable to feel the difference on the road really, 5 deg though if you want a figure
Front Camber 1 deg of neg
Rear Toe 1/12" in
Rear Castor N/A
Rear Camber 1/4 deg of neg

hope this is usefull chap.

Hi Littler

Thanks, I've got a set of dunlop camber castor guages and tracking guages so I can set it.
I'm pretty used to hillclimb single seaters so like a sharp turn in.

Will try the settings you've suggested and see how it feels.

Cheers

Hi Simon,
I have the following on my Hydro S

Front toe in 1/16"
1.5 deg negative camber
4 deg castor

Rear zero toe in
.5 deg neg castor

It seems good at that.
