In Topic: Shorter wheelbase question

"more weight transfer to the front on decel and more weight transfer to the rear on accel."

 
That's a very interesting generality about rear steer.  thanks
 
 
edit:  I think I also see rear steer occur when a car is neither accelerating nor decelerating, the driver is just sort of on it through the turn while maintaining a set speed.  With that in mind wouldn't understanding of rear steer force you to separate mechanical chassis operation because of engine output from acceleration or deceleration? 
 
Thanks for the reply you got me thinking more on it trying to bring dive and anti dive into what rear steer and jacking the chassis is doing.  Maybe we should look at the results of rear steer as altering front chassis to dive while accelerating?  Might it be a sort of diving the front towards the track under acceleration similar to dive while braking?  Sorry it's sort of hard to think about dive occuring at the front while accelerating, but maybe easier or even able to fit it in while maintaining a set speed?  Maybe making the rear steer/dive about planting the right front? 
 
... don't know but fun to think about and thinking of it more maybe what makes a great Late driver is their ability to maintain their chassis action with the right foot, while neither accelerating nor decelerating? 

 

 

 

the weight transfer and the rear steer are independent effects of the wheel base being shortened

i already answered this you goons.  Bring LR forward gives you rear steer.  Also, more weight transfer to the front on decel and more weight transfer to the rear on accel.

It's only $24.99 to watch the Pittsburgher if you stay at your house which is a 50% discount over the saturday gate price.

 

Through what source?

I'm ASSUMING that the left side wheelbase was the issue and that it was too short.  In this case, you would be pulling the LR forward in an effort to make a whole bunch of rear steer.

Oh wait did I just figure out what you meant
Do all the cars Beach helped set up have “ Anarchy” stickers ?

 

Yes.  If Beech put's a rivet on a car it is accompanied by an "ANARCHY KUSTOMS" sticker.
