I found alot of this to be too vague. I understand it’s meant to be a quick video but some of the information seem a bit off.

Things like the extra track decreasing load transfer being the reasoning for doing it. In reality the massive additional lock means the wheel hits the arch and so widening the track solves this.

The camber isn’t because of roll either, camber is added as the caster combined with huge lock causes the outside wheel to gain lots of positive camber at full lock, lots of negative static camber counteracts this.

Nice shiney video though.
