So should I just stick to the 6 degree caster or change back to the 4 degree and play with other settings to make my car more consistent?
Reason I ask is because I think no one runs 6 degree caster.
Please advise, many thanks.
Run what you are most comfortable with and prefer :-). I have often used 6 degree caster blocks in high traction conditions on open tracks as i preferred the smoother initial turn in then more mid corner steering. If you want to post your setup and some info on the track you race at I will happily try and provide an alternative change to try so you can run 4 degree caster blocks
