Physics [split from network thread]

A small quote from the car bible suspension page, so that you know how important proper suspension geometry simulation can be:

"In 2006, OnCamber LLC patented their variable camber steering system which they launched at SEMA in Las Vegas.
[...]
On track, this system has shaved 3 seconds off the development vehicle's lap times in race conditions."

I think Mercedes developed a similar suspension for their SLK, adapting camber on the fly, so that the tire stays as perpendicular to the ground as possible always.
Edit: not an SLK hehe. http://www.topspeed.com/cars/mercedes/me...r1214.html
