Inboard/Outboard toe

the outboard adjustment isolates the change in toe angle, and its effects.
the inboard adjustment also changes the way the chassis rolls, as it will have a fore/aft component to the chassis roll instead of just lateral. this adjustment can also affect your wheelbase if you don't compensate for the arm sweep, by respacing the arm position.
the actual effects will differ from car to car, or setup to setup. knowing how they affect the car will let you determine which way is better at any one time.
eg: your car my be rolling over the nose, and loosing rear bite as a result. by changing the rear toe at the pins, you may aggrevate the condition by causing more dive due to the new rear pin angle. in this case the outboard adjustment may be the more suitable solution of the two.

if you run toe out on wheels this makes car very nervous coming on to & on the straight ,might not track straight & self right it self
inboard toe blocks (front) sort all this out
i run .5 thats enough for the BD
