Hi all, would like to field a general discussion about drifting with no power steering. I removed mine after losing the battle to keep fluid from leaking out of various points in the system. my first shakedown without power steering proved that it is indeed a burden to drift with. I am also running ~7deg of caster up front now which I believe to be excessive now, the car self-steers at the speed of light and it is almost dangerous trying to catch the wheel. This is also in conjunction with a 320mm steering wheel, my plan moving forward is to reduce caster to a ~4deg and get a 350mm momo. I would like to keep p/s off the car for the sake of simplification, so I'd love to hear how others have set up their cars without power steering. thanks!

Finally following up to this. Sorry for the delay, I had to skip some events and never got to test it out. Also, gave it one more alignment before the event last weekend and damn it feels so much better. Again this is with a proper de-powered rack and a 350mm steering wheel.
Great on track (CAMS ACRES) and feels good on the highway too. Win-win! 4.5 will be my target for front camber and caster from here on out.
