Changing the spindle height.

My teammate Andy DiBrino runs his with 1mm on top .5 on the bottom. Essentially lowering the spindle. This creates Bump-In which can help make the car enter better, and steer less coming out of a turn.

It's really good for tight tracks or tracks where the front end is grabbing too much on exit.

You can go back to bump-zero and still maintain the additional steering change by adding a 1mm shim to the steering ballstud. With this you should essentially be giving your car an extra 1mm of droop without having to mess with the shocks. This will in turn give you more downtravel and less steering on the exit of a corner.

I know many probably don't mess with this setting, but try it out and see what you think. The adjustments take minimal time and you should see a difference on the track.
Thanks KK, so this would help reduce oversteering on exit.
