    When you arbitrarily add caster to a car, you significantly affect the bumpsteer, towards the wrong direction. I strongly recommend you have your car aligned by someone who knows what they are doing.

    BTW at 197, Aero is more important than caster by a factor of about 50. This is not a Miata at a local autocross.

    If you don't know who can bumpsteer an F40, PM me with your location and I can steer you in the right direction.

    Pun intended

    Thanks for the advice Jay.
    We have held the record at every Open road race course put on by the SSCC, CARS and BBORR at one time or another......
    We usually run a modified '92 Corvette at over 220 mph.
