Message	That's not completely true. There are cases where one might want their caster biased more one way than the other, depending on needs and priorities. Going higher (~10-11) gives you more straight ahead stability, but slower response in your steering. Going lower (say ~9 or 8.5) gives you less stability but quicker responding steering. Etc. Its personal preference and use of the car that would dictate for each person where their caster sweet spot would be. Inzane (formerly Z-Jay)
