DCMGT,
The Ackerman angles should be set to the course one is running.
Think about it. If High speed big radius corners are the norm then one uses low angles with the instant center very far aft.
Low speed really tight stuff moves things forward.
If the course is predominantly left hand then you move the instant center off center to optimize.
Actually quite simple in theory but a real ***** to make work on a circuit by circuit basis unless you have F1 type budgets.
My best advice to you is to just get rid of as much of the toe-steer as you can. (In particular the rear)
That will get you closer to a stable platform then anything else you can do. (Except for dampers)
And that is what you are after with this type of chassis.
Remember, a design dinosaur is after all just that.
A dinosaur.
Fun, mind you.
But there you are.
