If you concentrate more on taking good lines and keeping corner speed then you don't need all the steering throw of any car. I see it all the time, especially in 1/12 racing, where other drivers have way too much steering throw and they go into a corner and the car just looses all corner speed because the front tires are acting like a brake almost. I guess with the high capacity batteries now people don't have to try and have an efficient car because they're not going to dump. When I started racing sedans we ran with 1700's and soon after 2000's in mod for 5 minutes and I usually ran a 10 turn and didn't dump.
