less caster?

[sucker4stalefish]

it seems that most people run a lot more camber on their cars for stability. my friend owns an alignment machine so i tried running 5 degrees and it the car feels much more go-cartish with faster steering response. from what i understand, this decreases contact patch during turns, but the car just seems to slide easier. since i dont steer much when driving over 90mph anyway, i dont see much sacrifice in high speed stability. am i risking damaging or sacrificing anything with less caster?

no
its fine. run less. car setup is personal prefernce
if i were you i'd just run stock caster.

wait im confused...your running 5 degrees camber or caster? your running -5 camber and less caster is what your saying right? anyways...positive caster gives you more neg camber when turning...so like dousan said...alignments are all personal preference...i personally run more positive caster...
