7 oldest cars ever on the Goodwood Hill | Festival of Speed 

It surely is, along with the isotta fraschini race cars it's the most beautiful pre WWI cars...

A stunner

It was shown in another video before but I'm unsure which

We've shown it many times! But it is also younger than these cars.

Who says it isn't? 👀 It's not.

These cars were built before modern stiff racing suspension was the norm, often using parts from trucks and industrial equipment because they were the biggest, strongest parts. Under heavy braking, these suspension components would often dip, both because of the weight of the chassis and engines, but also because the leaf springs were simply built that way. Many cars had half-moon style setups, Dubonnet-style setups, etc. So the positive camber was to compensate for this deficit -- under load, the tires would straighten out, leading to the most traction under heavy braking. Furthermore, as the race went on and fuel was used up, the car would gradually sink into the front end more and more in the corners, so they would straighten out over time as well. In short, the camber goes neutral / negative under braking (which is *very* sketchy in a car going 100+mph in the 1910s) for maximum stability, with the trade-off being positive camber during rest or acceleration.

@@KaigaiKitsune Thankyou! Makes perfect sense! Appreciate that 👍🏻

For many drivers of the day it was.

Very poor.
