Well...
I have seen a lot of "factory" drivers say "my car wanders, I'm putting toe out into it" and it work. It makes the car track straight because it induces scrub, and the extra toe out makes the car tun in a little crisper. It also can induce a mid corner push because of the ackerman it induces.
Because of the servo's self centering function, toe in (which in a "street" car causes the car to go straight by the same sort of tire scrub) seems like it makes the car have hyper steering center off.
On an unrelated note, after running sedans indoor on carpet for a week, I now realize what a pile of shit 4wd short course is to drive by comparison.
