The rear blocks all work and the difference in practice is . . . . . . .

The lower the lower arms are in the chassis, the more roll you "should" have. I will ahve to take this to the Mugen forum and ask Robbie Collins for more insight.

Lower RC the chasis roll more but harder to, higher RC the chasis roll less but easier, the chasis quicker react to the ground make the car have more traction.

from my personal experience, the red shoe has the most grip and won't slip. you kinda don't want to use it though when the track is slippery... or still could but you have to tighten the clutch.

For some reason i hate the red shoes, ive always had problems with them slipping or wearing to fast, the grey shoe seems to grip and wear the best for me.

this place has it, but the unit price is pretty high if you just buy a few.
