In all out racing and rallying it is not all that important as steering
is more by throttle that by steering wheel and wear is hardly an issue.
However in day to day driving it is fairly importan to save your tires
and keep the steering from wandering to much.

<div>That great Australian 'works' Healey driver
Paul Hawkins after he drove Sprites and 3000s
at Sebring,LeMans and ther Targa Florio went
on to be a 'works Porsche and Ford GT driver.
He also drove a F.1 Lotus at Monarco</div>
<div>Anyway when he drove one of the Porsches he
thought it handled badly and was not backward
in advising the Porsche factory mechanics.
Paul claimed the wheel alignment was out. Team
Porsche said this is impossible as it was set
at the factory and consquently a mere driver
should not change it. Hawkins being a hands-on
mechanic ( he did own a BN.2 in Australia )
said crap and got 4 oil drums and some string
and his favourite spanner. On completion of
the re-alignment he then went out and was some
seconds faster. Job done.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Moral of the story is 4 corner objects and
some string will do it. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For those who have not viewed it take a
look at Paul and Timo Makinen at work in a
'works' 3000 ABL 92B ( ? ) at the Targa.
Some sound effects at the beginning and in car
footage.</div>
