Interesting video, but dont Caterham have a lot of camber

rdodger - 13/12/13 at 04:25 PM

Yes!

The R600 up to 5 degrees of camber on slicks.

The 620r 3-4.

Excellent...
That Caterham looks sooo much fun!
Thanks for sharing.

Mark.

Could it in part be down to the much higher profile tyres in the Caterham compared to the others which will have much much lower profile tyres? More camber would allow/compensate for more tyre deflection when cornering.

The only one I didn't appreciate was the new Mini, just CANNOT get with it on that car. Ambivalent about old Minis, but the we one just screams fashion trinket at me. Shame really as it's clearly a very capable car.

Watch the Vauxhalls on BTCC or Volvo on WTCC if you want to see mega camber, I thought the cars were knackered until I saw what happened in the corners.

Never even heard of BAC mono, must of slipped by me, all cracking cars but the 7 does it for me all day long

when the cars were all tested at snetterton (apart from the 7 as it failed the 105db limit again) the radical was pretty much untouchable.but that mclaren was not involved!
