Can anyone answer this. At full lock there is a fair amount of straightening of the outside front wheel on our kart while the inner continues to add more lock. I have seen this on other karts, is it just a compromise of the design or it is supposed to do it ?
I realise that we should not normally be using this amount of lock but if you do you end up with one wheel fighting the other.
I can see that by moving the points where the track rods attatch to the column together or even in the same hole will reduce this but that will affect the ackerman angles to some extent.
