Pat Mical showed Johnny Woods the trick for modifying the A-arms, and he's 
done several cars in Europe, including the GT5 I just got done driving.   
One 'leg' of the A-arm is straightened, giving much more adjustability 
potential; the car then is able to get about 7 degrees of caster (you're lucky if 
you get 2.5 with the stock setup).

It worked very, very well.   The tramlining and darting so common to GT5 
and GT5/S cars was simply absent.   The car tracked much more straight and 
true, and there was zero increased steering effort.

Highly recommended!

Mike
