the only reason i say this is because i had a cougar,adding washers took away alot of the steering,i just thought i was getting the hang of this set up lark
Hi Reg

Giving the car more kick up is similar in the way it handles but not 100% the same as giving a car more caster so less kick up will make the car change direction faster where as more kick up will make the cars reaction slow down a little and make the car more forgiving to drive. If you try both back to back as it is only a quick change on the car you will be very supprised at the difference it makes to the way the car handles

Cheers
