When your front suspension is compressed, the angle of the upper susp. arm will give you a amount of angle change. The Arm is Angle forward and will decrease your amount of caster, when compressed
In "short" terms: (This is not precisely true)
10 Degrees Will give a lot "corner in" but not so much "corner out"
5 degrees will give a smooth feeling
0 degrees will give a really soft an lazy feeling.
Normally I'm driving 5 degrees, because I don't like the feeling of 10, when I'm going fast into a corner. The car will tent do "drift" going in, but will be stable in the middle - end of the corner. And 0 degrees is just to soft...
