Default xxxcr caster question
Hi,
Can somebody please explain to me how to adjust the caster on a xxx cr, and what it actually does? I have had a look on various setup sheets but don't get how to do it or what it does.

Many Thanks in advance.

Lloyd

The car comes with 30deg as standard, you can get 25deg castor blocks which will make the front more aggressive on initial turn in.
