I don't think that setup will have good side bite. And the wheelbase is kinda long for a tight course....

I don't think that wheelbase is important if the vehicle has independent front and rear steer. :mrgreen:

Trouble begins here, as there is no link between the front and rear steering, which presents handling issues when they get out of sync.
