A found a comment by another racer made in the 1/12 scale thread. No one managed to answer his question. I too am curios to find out what your opinion is.

"Just out of curiosity...
Suppose I'm running maximum caster at my front end (all 3 shims to the front) and 5* Blocks.

What would be the difference between:
moving a shim to the rear...
or changing to 10* caster block

I already know the reactive caster allows you to have more in the straights, calming the car, and less in the corner, allowing the car to turn in harder.

I just want to know under what situations would it be better to make static caster changes vs. reactive caster changes."


Cheers.
