I was driving my mate's NT1 last week and I found his car has much more steering (very responsive) especially at coner entery and mid-coner on-power steering as compared to mine. I tried to trace what are differences between his NT1 and mine and I found that the front track width on his car is 196mm instead of the standard setting 198mm. Would this be the case? |

For sure, narrower front track width increases front end grip which in turn will result in more steering. Would be a good idea to compare front toe settings as well. Toe out on the front gives improved corner entry speed. Andrew |

Thanks for your advise Andrew. I checked the front toe-out to be 0.5 degree (on both cars) |
