Also remember that caster does a lot more than affect steering weight. The two reason that Racers like a lot of caster is that it provides a strong self centering feel which is very handy when the car gets loose well into the triple digits. The other affect caster has is that it is effectively dynamic camber in relation to steering angle. If you are driving a camber limited car on tires that like large amounts of camber, you can use large amounts of caster to make it a little better. The only caution I have is with lots of caster has the result of very limiting your contact patch under large steering angles if your car does not have a lot of roll which can manifest its self in sudden onset of terminal understeer. It is all dependent on the use and set up of the vehicle vehicle though so there really isn't one right caster setting for everyone.
