FD getting air

Pretty nice shot....I wonder how the landing felt.

Not too good..



there's one other in the sequence, with both fronts bottomed and the rear bouncing back into the air, finished 8th or 9th in class from memory though. One GT2 Porsche was less lucky blowing a tyre on landing and ending up in the **** - literally - settlement pond!

How much camber are you running in the front or is that just the picture o.O

Not I.

Typically, the cars here run 2 1/2 degrees or so....looks like the unloaded is toeing in a lot - must be weird angle.

i thought that once the suspension unloaded a certain amount it started pulling the camber back to negative? which would explain the odd look in the picture. I am guessing the steering rack is causing the extreme toe in the image.
