How much toe in are we running?

No worries, glad to be of help, I to love the Yoko's, a great all round tire, I have had some awesome drives in the Australian Alps in the last couple of weeks and the Yoko's couldn't be better.
The Chapman quote is pretty amusing, a typical of the cuff remark.

I use 1/16th a side front for a 1/8 total toe in and 1/8 a side rear for a total of 1/4 toe in on the rear ----THAT WAY THE FRONT WHEEL GOES TO ZERO WHEN THE WEIGHT GOES TO THE FRONT under braking and the suspension bump steers to 0 and keeps stability untill turn in [ the speed of turn in is then determined by the slip angle of the tire] ----probably why the toe out set up seems to work well in corners on turn in ---but is twitchy on the straight away --- :? -ed
dont close your eyes --you will miss the crash
