Revisited: Go Fast Turn Left

This diagram is for oval track stock cars, but you can implement this method into motorcycle oval track racing (especially short tracks) where you don't have much of a straight.  Slightly offset wheels, slight camber of wheels.  Old school racers say it works - for faster corner speeds,  . . . different methods for cushion tracks or hard pack surfaces.  You probably can't get too crazy, 'since I assume your chain is running a bit off?  I see the European racers shaved their tires at angles to get more surface area(contact patch) on the ground for different tracks.  Anything to gain an edge.
