not all of the tire is spread out on the ground for maximum handling...

Caster is more likely to make a car drift. The first 2Gs that hit the road had matched left and right front tyre caster, which made the car drift with the pitch of the road. Since we are on the right side of the crown of the road, early 2Gs had a tendency to drift right. They added a degree of negative caster to the driver side front tyre, and the cars held their line better.

yeah, my car drifts right. made march of '95. but i had an alignment done. all cars drift right most of the time in miami though, cuz the roads are tilted more to deal with the rain (not that they do that well)
