4wd High speed steering?

In fundermental terms (suspension design) what would give more "turn in" at high speeds if a car was godd at low to medium speeds? Is this affescted by ackerman, roll centre etc? (4wd car)

Would this also be the case for power on understeer?

Cheers

You could also adjust your camber. Lean the top of the front wheels in. This will make the outside tire dig more when you go around the corners for more front traction.
