I was curious about everyone's opinion on the final wheel adjustment. In the past I've always adjusted my wheels to yield the truest and longest spin. I've read that some racers subscribe to using a dime's width as an adjustment spacing. The theory behind this is it will supposedly act as a shock absorber when your cars hits the center rail. It would appear you would be trading four points of sloppy friction for a couple bumps on the way down. Our cars are rail riders this year. I'd love to hear any thoughts on this. Thank you!

Thank you, that confirms how I have always adjusted my wheels. I have never bent axles to adjust steer before. I'm not exactly sure the best method to bend the screws. Do you slide the wheel on, mark the inside point closest to the threads, then attempt to secure the screw and give a slight bend at that mark? When installing, adjust the screw to give your car the steer?
