Ackermann

[mfain]

For those still thrashing with Ackermann considerations, there is a new, 6-page article by Bob Bolles in the Mar 2010 Circle Track titled "Ackermann Technology, The History, Application, and Truth About..." It offers a good technique for checking Ackermann along with an Ackermann Toe Chart, and it offers techniques on how to change Ackermann. You just have to "filter out" the techniques for the "left turn-only crowd" such as different length left and right steering arms. They don't have the article uploaded on their website yet, but that should happen soon. There is also a pretty good article on GM's new CT525, a 750 carb'ed LS3 that makes 525 hp/471 ft-lbs of torque for less than $10,000. With a different pan, it might make a good Track Day motor??
