Well , at this point you can design/build a car w/proper steering geometry ,that will handle well & not put you or others in a compromising position or .......???I understand what ackerman is and how it works. I dont see the importance of it on such a light car, so the tires might scrub a bit during tight turns. I know its debated all the time with these cars, and yet a vast majority of the Buckets still run this set up.
I worked very hard to get my Ackerman correct and it payed of well. Please put the tie rod BEHIND; It should not be your front bumper.
