Because BumpSteer makes the car (steering) dart left and right as the suspension compresses and extends. Removing it or minimising it makes for a less 'nervous' car.

Use the search function and brace yourself for lots of praise regarding its removal.

Is nobody going to be there to play with?

doh.....thick attack over here

misread 'removed'

for some reason i was thinking 'bumpsteer' was an add on, ie the metal shim, and you were having that removed.

wish i never asked now
