Positive caster is when the axis of rotation of the wheel piled high in the back of the machine, when looking at the car from the side. This is the line passing often through the upper and lower mounting points of the rack. Also plays a big role in tire wear for a normal car it needs to be economical, and the racers can afford to buy tires more often(at least I wish it was :) )ĬUSTER is the longitudinal angle of the axis of rotation of the wheel. But compared to racing on a regular civilian vehicles that are harder to achieve due to the softer suspension with large strokes, creating a great roll when cornering. It would be ideal to have the wheels set perpendicular to the road under all conditions. The instability in the acceleration and braking in a straight line(because the area of the contact patch is small)īased on the foregoing, engineers are looking for a compromise and try to keep the camber around -0.5 degrees in a turn with compressed suspension. Increased wear of the inside edge of the tire while driving straight. When you turn the inside wheel is unloaded and sometimes even completely rises, thereby allowing the supporting wheel even more to get the car inside the turn. Negative camber on both wheels that creates extra stability on the straight because the wheel is badly disintegrated tries to roll sweep inward(like a cone rolling on a circle around its vertex) In the turn of the vehicle body to roll, thereby creating a positive camber and reducing the area of contact of wheel and road.The negative values of the camber will compensate this effect.As a result, more grip and more stability in the turns. The values of collapse for sports cars usually are within THE EFFECT OF CAMBER ON THE BEHAVIOR OF THE CAR If wheel top side outward is positive camber. If the wheels on the upper side directed inward("house") is negative camber. If you draw an imaginary line through the center of the wheel perpendicular to the road, it would be zero camber. Camber is the angle of the wheels relative to the road surface when looking at the car in front.
