What kind of caster would you recommend on a fast smooth asphalt track
with a good amount of grip. The track has some really fast corners and some slow sharp ones too. I'm currently using 3 deg caster.

Thanks,
S

eyeball, try running 3 degree"s of caster with a small amount of kick up (use a 0.75 holder) on the rear of the front wishbone pivots, this will make the car steer well enough at low speed, but easier to drive at high speed.

Darren, what is a 0,75 holder? Are you tryin´to mount the front holder lower than the rear holder of the front wishbone?

by 0.75 holder i mean the optional pivot blocks for the suspension to lower roll centre, by placing this on the rear mount for the front wishbone you get a slight angle on the arm.
