Do you have chassis questions?

I'll be speaking with a Fiesta ST engineer next week. Do you have any specific chassis-related questions I might be able to ask?

Isn't push and under steering the same thing?

pretty sure bar on base car is 22mm....at least for 2014. Higher roll center and stiffer springs on ST means less stiff bar is required....

As per the ST manual, the front bar is 19 mm.
This is the same size as the non-ST.

I was told that the springs are the same as the FRPP Handling Pack that was available for the 2011-2013 Fiesta.

hmmm....I pulled the base car print yesterday to look. I'll double check next week....not in office tomorrow.
Since the topic seems to be roll stiffness, what are diameter and wall thickness of the stock and ST twist beam axle tubes?

While you're at it, how about camber and toe specs?

And are there any geometry tricks that would get messed up if the beam was made too stiff?

Gotta support your comments guys...

I do not know about their preferences.
I was told I could not mention any names but they were wearing FRPP name tags.
