DETAILS - Due to the design of the control arm angles, camber control is enhanced throughout the four inches of suspension travel, while minimizing side movement of tire contact patch (side scrub). The side angle of the control arm contributes to increased anti-dive for better stability under hard braking, while serving to provide a smooth and supple ride.

DETAILS - Caster has been increased to +5 degrees (from normal +2 degrees) to provide improved stability at speed. This also improves the tire contact patch and weight distribution under cornering.

DETAILS - The Chassis roll center is maintained almost perfectly thru the first 3 degrees of body roll and beyond 3 degrees the roll center movement is minimized resulting in a suspension that is vastly improved over a Mustang II type suspension. The rate of vertical movement is almost 1:1 with suspension movement, while the path it follows during transitions (braking, cornering, acceleration) is very smooth. Resulting in very consistent, stable and predictable vehicle handling.
