Can someone explain what they mean when they talk about "side bite"?
Side bite is what slows a car down in the corner if it is too high. It can also cause a car to traction roll. It is the sheer force (Grip) of the tires vs. the centrifugal force of the car. You want a good balance of both to have the fastest corner speed.
