meb should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Okay, not we're cooking with hot oil!

flavorpacket - you basically answered my question in this sentence, "so, if you increase mech trial (through an increase of caster etc), a higher percentage of steering weight will come from it, so less overall steering weight will come from pneumatic trail." However, I'm going refine my question based on your sentence. I am concerned with adding too much mech trail because as you wrote, it adds to the over-all weight at the steering wheel...can a point be reached whereby mech trail is so strong - contributes to a huge portion of steering wheel weight - that it essentially doesn't allow pneumatic trails sensations to reach the steering wheel? That is my central concern. I want to add a bit maore cater, but not in lieu of washing out pneumatic trail.

urban,

I actually wondered about this, thanks for identifying!

"My view of point three is that you always was a positive mechnical trail to guarentee that the resultant trail (mechanical + pnuematic) is always positive so you don't get a torque reversal in the steering."
or identifying!
