I have a 2003 mini cooper s. what are good toe, tire pressure and caster set ups for this car in autocross?
I've run my wife's 2005 S once, but it's been awhile so I don't remember the pressures. If no one here chimes in, the folks at northamericanmotoring.com have a Gstock specific forum that you can find almost any answer on. The forum is a little hard to find -- NAM G-Stock
Make sure to check out the online suspension tech articles, too. I believe "Tilt", in particular, will be helpful.
I run an '05 Cooper (non S), I have received lots of good info from Per. Not sure how to link to old posts but if you do a bit of searching there is some good stuff right here in this forum. It's been working for me so far, I just need to get the nut behind the wheel torqued properly so I can really benefit from having a good set up!
I'm confused. in Jan 20 2003 a grm article on their mini says" the rear is set with 1/8 toe in which will help with trailing throttle oversteer" On page 102 of the Mini book "motoring" by Gary Anderson it says that if the rear tires toe out then it will be easier for the rear end to turn, contributing to oversteer. I want my Mini to turn easier in autocross. I want to minimize my understeer by tuning the rear for easier turn in. Do I toe in or toe out the rear?
