hey guys,i want to make an announcement.BMI Racing chassis kit is now going to have perfect ackerman with the nitro steering rack.thanks to tim and BMW who have been working hand and hand with me on this accomplishment.the way that the rack is mounted on all of the aftermarket chassis has no ackerman which scrubs speed through the corners.now with the new placement,you have perfect ackerman with the losi hubs or associated hubs.thanks to everyone involved in this.i am proud of all of you guys.
What do you mean "no ackerman" - there should be a certain amount of ackerman. The inside tire must turn slightly more than the outside tire - that's what ackerman is - and it has to do that because the inside tire turns a slightly tighter turn than the outside tire. . .so, could you clarify what you mean?

Thanks!
