It must be the big wing making down force even when the car isn’t moving.

My alignment specs are as follows:
Front Camber -2.2
Front Toe .14
Caster 5.1
Rear Camber -2.3
Rear Toe -.16
Nice weight. I weighed my 93 R1 with A/C and air pump and full tank of gas (maybe 2 gallons shy of full) recently at the track. Total weight (w/o driver) was 2,802. The only thing I removed from the car was the spare tire.

Broke down as follows:
DF = 723 PF = 659
DR = 715 PR = 704

Not sure how level the scales were as this was at the track testing for min weight at a NASA event.

I'd love to get some feedback on your caster when you get the car out. Which hopefully will be soon.

Good luck.
