Should the wheel countersteer by itself?

[mafratra]

i mean in real life the cars countersteer by itself?
in AC my t150 helps me doing countersteer . it is a real feedback?

[SØLVENTDRØP (=◉ᆽ◉=)]

yes

Have you ever driven a car on track?

(yes it's real)

no and it' s the reason why i bought a sim wheel

[mafratra]

so nothing is wrong with my t150?
so it helps me in countersteering
i thought it was some wrong setup

Cars usually are built to drive in a straight like when you don't touch the wheel. Everything else would be hard to control and really dangerous, especially for inexperienced drivers on public roads.

Look up caster and self aligning torque. Yes the wheel will "countersteer" by itself.

yes, when getting sideways the front wheels will naturally find the path of least resistance which is the direction the car is travelling (not pointing)

Exactly. That's why you get countersteering. Just like a normal car.

If you look at a onboard drifting video the drivers don't really even turn the wheel

Technically it's trail, not caster. With struts, increasing caster increases trail.

Wisefab kits have almost no caster and lots of trail so even at high deflection the contact patch is never more than a few degrees off-camber.

Shopping cart/stroller wheels are called casters.. yet they have 0 caster and significant trail. Go figure.

thank you guys
you are all brilliant

As I wasn't sure to what the thread subject was about, I decided to check it out. Glad I did!
Was nice to see the community help dispense 'laymen' terms.
