rack n pinion front steer ackerman issues...explain...

AJ/FormS said

I would be much more concerned with bump-steer for drag-racing.
Just watch some U-tubers coming off the line, to see some radical toe-change as the front ride-height changes. Scary stuff.

I wonder if the stock lower BJs with integral steering arms would be the best choice for front steer. I cant see it working very well for Ackerman or bump-steer; but then I suppose a drag-car isn't overly concerned with turning. Still, if the car gets sideways at half-track or speed, I imagine you would want the car to steer at least somewhat predictably!
Good luck in your engineering.

Your ackerman is all wrong if one trys to just flip stuff around back to front on these things im told. That is what is most complained about. Which makes one wheel turn much more than the other at travel extention while in a turn. Seems most do not know how to fix this issue. Blame is always place somewhere else besides the ones doing the thinking. So if you like hard fast turns it makes it much more difficult to go around turns smoothly at good speeds.

So the outer wheel doesnt turn as much as the inner wheel does and drags and pulls the car away from the turn outwards. In drag racing that would be prefered cuz would wants to follow the turn into the wall anyways? Not me

That about sum it up?
