High speed alignment tweaks.

I always respect those around me, but when it’s a nice day with very little traffic (almost never) and my WAZE has no problems reported ahead, I like to visit 3X the posted speed limit. I don’t run up on people or get reckless, but occasionally there is that clear road ahead and four open lanes, and for the next mile or two, I have to hear 7K in 5th and grab 6th. It’s my bad, I know it’s not politically correct, yes I may be that tool, but it’s a Ferrari that needs to exercise a little once in a while.

Having confessed, I also want to increase my stability at the 165+ range and wanted to know if anyone has done the following or have experience with tweaking the 612 / 599.

I have a 05 612, and had the car scaled, front and rear alignment to spec, and new tires. Its fine to 150, but I feel it getting a bit light in the front from that point on. Everything is stock but the wheels. 599 OEM front and rear wheels and Tires.

I’m considering reducing the front toe out (- direction), increasing rear toe in, and increasing caster (+). Just a little bit and see if that works. I would then try a thicker front roll bar if anyone makes one. It would probably be months later that I would get an opportunity to see if there is an improvement, but it wouldn’t be very expensive to try.

Anyone have any experience with the 599 or 612 trying this?

 

+1 on that Terry.
