How Does Camber Work? Camber Explained

Camber is an essential thing to get the most out of your tyres in terms of grip and handling, however sometimes people go to far... Today we are talking all things suspension, and in this episode we explain camber, what it is, how it works, and what you should be doing with it.

[@anmolmahajan123]

please do a video on roll center and roll axis . its effect when keeping it higher in front and lower in rear and vice-versa

[@seanzukin8505]

Ive seen many tire force diagrams that show contradictory things about cambers affect on max lateral force in cornering. Admittedly many are from older books but some claim camber increases the "area under the curve" while one or two claim an increase in peak lateral grip. Can you weigh in on which model is more accurate? I know of at least one chart that came up with the area under the curve model from instrumented testing but your description seems to imply that camber should have a large increase in peak grip. Also, I would really enjoy a video on pneumatic trail and its affects on steering feel and aligning torque! Great videos, keep em coming!

Can you cover bump steer effects of movement/repositioning of steering rack.

[@Karlanton78]

Well explained Kyle...love you vids.

Also camber thrust is mad, so much thrust like a fucking eurofighter typhoon- which is the best plane ever. All the more reason for loads of camber.

Would love to see you build and setup a car for road racing.

Could you do CFD for naca ducts and how they compare against traditional intakes?

[@daviddroescher]

would this solve the camber V stearing input issues (enough for high g corner but too much for straight line braking) lay it over like you want ,then reorient the spindle V king pin declination angle. as the tire rotates around the new KPD it will pick up camber and directly transfer weight (stronger feed back /more effort in tighter turns)

[@robdouglas7842]

At what point do you determine there is too much camber? If you are using a pyrometer on the inside middle and outside of the tire, what temperature gradient is considered to be too much?

[@RafaGmod]

Niiice! After this series would be cool if you analyze the suspension set of the red Opel Astra in GSMP 2013! That shit turns! hahaha

[@rimka11]

How much camber do I need on my bike ?

[@ankitprasaddevrari4160]

sr pls tell how to calculate optimum camber angle for a electrical car

[@ehabhfs]

how there is less load on the outside tire when cornering ???????????? i know that the load transfer occurs from inside to outside tires

[@saikarthikeya4463]

Ehab Saleh That's what I'm confused about

[@stevenolson95]

awesome!

[@flamingronin]

Don't you know anything?! Best thing to do is have to have loads of camber so you can get some awesome tuck. Who cares about handling well when you are mad stanced. #hellaflush

Thankyou

[@1AndTheBrake]

in a drag racing application neutral camber is best?

[@esnevip]

Yes

[@1AndTheBrake]

@@esnevip are you taking into consideration the swat ?

[@esnevip]

@@1AndTheBrake if you have a solid rear the camber would stay the same through the squat, similar for double wishbone. If you only had lower control arms then it would be something to look into then yes.

[@1AndTheBrake]

@@esnevip nahh i know now now thats was a long time ago i asked that question check out my vids we do street racing on forza pretty big community..

#stancenation bro

[@harshit.k071]

which website did you tell. I can't get you.

[@rii4364]

why is positive camber consider bad or unfavorable?

[@esnevip]

Imagine leaning in one direction, and someone shoves you in the other direction, you would probably be ok because you're braced for it. Now imagine leaning In one direction and being shoved in the same direction, you end up on your ass. Same deal.

[@sotaros93]

Positive??

[@michaelnorman1148]

The extreme camber has absolutely no performance aspect to it. It is simply something people do. They are not getting grip if that were the case all race cars would do this and guess what they don't. These piece of shit cars think it's cool and it's absurd

[@lucywucyyy]

wow these comments are almost as bad as an engineering explained video lol
