From the ground up: Camber and Toe

Banger intro

This whole series is fantastic. Thank you.

[@hawkins2211]

bro, absolutely nailed it with that tune. my favourite,,

[@skaargan]

I like it when u explain what will happen to the car from start to end... Like when entering corner, mid corner and exit corner

[@justinturner6908]

Great explanation. Guys talk about this all the time in other videos, but simply say the words toe in/out or camber, but give no details. Worse, they confuse it by throwing too many factors together at one time and just leave you scratching your head. I like the simplicity of the information and the focus on only the topic being discussed. I thought this video might be too basic for myself, but after watching, it still got me thinking about some things on my own cars. Excellent video for beginners or seasoned veterans.

Thank you!

Max i agree Too much toe in corners slows the car down too much . Top work

[@Harvey600]

I was trying to get mid corner rotation by tuning my centre diff, after I watched your diff video. But, running more camber seems to make more sense. Not least because it’s really quick to do.

Good stuff Max, very helpful

[@mundodejuegos5461]

Good Job Maximus!

[@rickyd75]

Great job Max, keep up the good work.

Everyone has said i was a natural. Ive always run 3 degree rear toe. I fell hooked when mad rotation i have add fast brain maybe i need. 1.5 toe ffs brain click

Great video. Had to watch it a few times to try to understand. So, when you have low camber gain, from the car demo, it looks like you have more camber change. The rear wheel looked like it went to positive camber. Is that OK, or do you try to set the camber so this doesn't happen?

[@maxmortrc]

That effect is not something you don't want to have on the track. Depending on driving style though for racers that are smoother the car will never roll to the most extreme position. Due to this they wont suffer the downside of having the tire go so far into positive camber during roll and they will have the advantage of having the camber angle remain the same through different points of suspension travel. You might need to run slightly more camber with lower camber gain settings but mostly for me I enjoy having very little static camber either way. To sum it up: If you are a smooth driver most likely you will enjoy less camber gain and less camber. If you are really agressive and you like to force the car into the turn you will enjoy more camber gain and more camber.

When the static front toe-out is 1 degree, what is the toe-out value when the car is accelerating hard and decelerating hard ?

[@maxmortrc]

This is affected by bump steer. This can be tuned by the angle of your steering linkage. You can put shims on the inside or the outside when you are mounting the link. The goal is to make the steering link angle so that when the suspension travels there is no bump steer meaning the tires stay at the same angle as static toe-out.
