Autocrossing with manual in charger....

[1974dodgecharger]

Is it ok and possible to autcross in the charger with manual steering?  Mopars at the strip has it for 85 bucks presented by hotchkis I have almost their pieces on my car and would like to give it a try with manual steering.

Do they get mad if you hit all the cones?

I don't see why it would be such a big deal.  I know of quite a few dirt trackers that run manual steering, or just loop their power steering hoses.  Go ahead and try it Cone killer

Only thing you can do is try.  Is manual steering the optimal setup for auxo-X'ing?  Maybe not, but it's completely "possible" to do...

'cone killer' thats a good one I might just that if I register for it in April and videotape me hitting all the cones and get an award for 'worst autcrossing in history'

When I was a young man:  Hey I could do that & did.  One arm steering through
anything I could find.  Called it practice or a challenge.  IF you haven't dialed out
all of the forward bias they came with; you are steering as much with the rear as
with the steering wheel  

Now my kids are grown & my shoulders are shot - not gonna be able to prove it. 
We didn't come up with technological advances just to see the next group hurt
like we do............

Modern wheels - I hate the look of them - have the majority of the tire's contact
patch biased toward the inside of the bearings.  This is to offset steering input +
allot of other engineering benefits that I haven't completely bought into yet.  So,
Of course there is a way to dial in your front suspension to take advantage of
such a set up.  Suspension dynamics being what they are today:  You can build it
as you see fit

At one time most racing was done without power steering.  I blame Jeff Gordon.

need to email hotchkis to see if its ok that I knock down 99% of the cones that day in vegas....

Have confidence in the machine.
