    :: Tuning Tips Tips for Beginners: Before making any changes to the standard setup, make sure you can get around the track without crashing. Changes to your car will not be beneficial if you can’t stay on the track. Your goal is consistent laps. Once you can get around the track consistently, start tuning your car.
  • Page 24 :: Tuning Tips Caster: Caster describes the angle of the kingpin from vertical while looking from the side of the car. Positive caster means the top of the kingpin leans rearward. Negative caster means the kingpin is leaning towards the front of the car. Since caster is measured at the wheel, it is affected by running any inclination in your inboard arm mount.
  • Page 25 :: Tuning Tips Kick-Up (front): Kick-up describes the angle of the front suspension arm, where the front mount is higher than the rear mount. Increasing kick-up will give more entry steering, as well as increasing caster at the wheel. Anti-Dive (front): Anti-dive is a front arm angle where the rear mount is higher than the front mount.
