That's why I think some things in racing are subjective. Almost all driving dynamics are based on math.
But I feel in this situation you have to base it on feel. When you come to a turn based on your speed and braking. That will make you feel how much you need to steer. Irregardless of how much lock to lock steering you have.
So if a manufacturer designs a car where both sides of the car are mirror images of each other. There shouldn't be any bias. I know you mentioned corner weight and motor torque steer. But that still shouldn't matter because your going feel how much to turn. you always setup a for how much maximum steering you need and steer accordingly for each turn. IE tires shocks etc.
Lastly imagine a rod connected to both right and left steering knuckles all the way across. And you connected the servo to that rod to steer the car. No matter where you connected it on the rod the left to right throw would still be the same. Of course give a little for play in the system.
Now for it being off by 40 increments there is something wrong there.
Ok ready for you to shred my theory to pieces
