Suspension/steering gurus: Ackerman?
Hey does anyone know the amount of Ackerman present in our steering system?
For those who aren't familiar with Ackerman, it is the difference in the angle that the front wheels turn. With positive Ackerman, the inside wheel will turn more than the outside wheel, this is helpful because the inside wheel is following a tighter radius around the turn.
