Rear toe in is stability and predictability, not necessarily under steer.
iirc Strano tries to zero out toe, more 'forward thrust' in theory, lots follow that advice but I've seen no testing that shows minor toe in negatively impacts speed and just adds confidence. If you're happy with rear stability as is leave zero toe, if it feels unstable add the toe in. Hypothesize, test, observe, repeat, but as above with only three events just get seat time. |

For all of you talking ride heights, how are you accurately/constantly measuring but to fender distances? Seems there is no "good way" to do it with a tape measure as you can't always start in the same place.
I have always used the bottom of the rim to put my tape measure on. its a repeatable spot for the tape measure Last edited by ka-t_240; 04-29-2021 at 07:54 PM. |

Just curious how many of you do the pedal dance for autox. The driver who a national caliber driver and only has a mildly prepped STX car(olihns shocks , header, flash tune ) only uses the manual disengagement of nanny’s and nearly got FTD and pax after taking three years off. He had read that the pedal dance affects breaks. Any thoughts. I do the pedal dance and do not notice any issues. I’m only average or mildly above average driver

Yes, just a long press to turn everything off. Never had an issue at all.

For the past 4 years of ownership all I've done is long press. I'd say it's worked out okay for me

Just a long press for me at autocross.
The only times any of systems have kicked in, the run was ruined anyway or sometimes getting the car stopped after the finish. |

Long press here.
When I ran SSC in 2018-19, I would pick up the inside rear on some tight off camber turns and that usually lead to some CPU intervention. But it wasn't in a bad way that I felt impacted my times. |
