I normally like 4 degrees of caster. I saw no 4 degree caster blocks for sale for the XXX-S. On trying the car as is, I liked the increased turn in. The car steers harder right at the begining of the turn and starts the cornering. The car has little tendency to toss the rear out when it's doing this so it is a go.

I added two degrees caster with kickup session before last. There was no improvement to be noticed mid corner where caster should help cornering the most.

So for this car I like 0 caster. It drives great. On the TC5 and most of my cars, I have 4 degrees caster installed but maybe I should try 0 on the TC5.
