The camber gain is more important on most tracks than the roll center, IMO. More camber gain (1 down), will roll more, and often have more side bite, and more rear grip on throttle while still cornering. Less camber gain (1 up), will roll less, have less rear side bite, and have more grip on throttle once the car is straight/squared up.

EFFECTS OF REAR ROLL CENTER ADJUSTMENT
REAR ROLL CENTER CHARACTERISTICS
Higher
Increases on-power traction
Use to avoid traction rolling at corner entry
Use under low-traction conditions
Lower
Decreases rear traction into corner
Increases steering into corner
Use to avoid traction rolling mid-corner and corner exit
REAR UPPER CAMBER LINK -
LENGTH
CHARACTERISTICS
Shorter link (outer hole on tower and/
or inner hole on hub)
Increases steering and decreases
stability into corner
Increases on-power traction slightly
Longer link (inner hole on tower and/or
outer hole on hub)
Decreases rear camber gain
Increases stability
Slows down the cars responsiveness
REAR UPPER CAMBER LINK -
SHOCKTOWER
EFFECT ON REAR ROLL CENTER
This has always been my bible on the subject and has always felt spot on as far as what the changes have felt like for me. My interpretation of the above post have me re thinking it. I just want to know if it is wrong.

Will there ever be a standard-thickness body compatible with the new laydown transmission?
While I understand it's rather counter-productive to drop the COG and then add weight to the body but, at least for practice, I'm looking for something with a higher durability factor.

Use the yokomo yz2 body. It fits quite nicely on the 3.0 i use it on my car, small gaps near the front but if your using the laydown then it wont really matter as clay tracks dont kick up much if any dirt.
