The older I get the less convinced I am that I know anything. But I have stronger opinions about things.
Here's another example of something that could be discussed to death. I am of the opinion (for now) that camber (relative to our cars) is little more than fine tuning for caster. And has no real value in and of itself. But is important as it relates to caster. There is never a side load on the tire unless you're turning. and caster over-runs camber by a 4:1 ratio most of the time.
Mitch Witteman and I debated this one weekend. We have different opinions on the matter. but it's still fun to discuss.
