What is a Alignment?
Here at Autosport we offer a full corner balance and alignment for any race car.
A full race car corner balance and alignment are crucial processes in optimizing the performance and handling of a race car.

Corner Balancing:
Corner balancing involves adjusting the weight distribution of the car across all four wheels. The goal is to achieve an equal weight distribution (or a desired distribution based on the car's design and handling characteristics) on each corner. This is typically done by adjusting the ride height and preload on each suspension corner, which affects how weight is distributed when the car is in motion. Proper corner balancing helps improve grip, stability, and overall handling, especially during cornering and braking. -
Alignment:
Alignment refers to the adjustment of various angles of the wheels relative to each other and to the car's chassis. Key alignment angles include camber, caster, and toe. These adjustments are critical for optimizing tire contact with the road surface, reducing tire wear, and enhancing steering response. In racing, alignment settings are often more aggressive compared to street cars, aiming for precise handling characteristics suited to track conditions and driving style.
In combination, corner balancing and alignment are essential for maximizing a race car's performance potential by ensuring even weight distribution and precise wheel alignment, ultimately translating to better handling, stability, and responsiveness on the track.
