He claims he see's this quite regularly with later mod cars and that its's part of the geometry that make the vehicle handle so well. I have to agree with the handling part as this vehicle sticks to the road like glue and steers beautifully.

Can anyone else corroborate these claims or am I being fed a line?
Welcome to AFF.

Have a look through the FG to FGX section, someone there might have an answer for you.
