Nik...

I've heard the claim that 'you can't change Caster without changing Camber as well on karts' many times before. Usually, I'd laugh it that claim but if YOU make it...... I have to listen. Can you explain how that works with the standard '4 hole' pill?

In a Wright chassis, assuming you have the pill set to give MAXIMUM caster and 'average' Camber.... then rotating the pill 180 degrees seems to leave the CAMBER the same but takes the Caster from Full to Minimum. If I do that that, my Camber settings remain EXACTLY as they were within the tolerances I can measure.

So... what is it that I am missing in this logic?

As I said, if most other people had said it, I'd have laughed.

Ian
