i don't get you guys. ever since the mtx3 people get the roll centres wrong!!

A is for high traction tracks when grip is abundant and not needed.

C is for slippery conditions.

C places the weight of the car higher up, and places the arms angling down to the ground. this creates a greater force pushing the point of the arms (the wheels) into the ground, hence more grip!)

A blocks make the arms paralel, and in most case angle up, this places less pressure on the end of the arms (the wheels) and causes the car to slip.

C blocks make the car more rear end taily due to the beter grip, some of you guys might be mistaking this for sliperyness

obviously you guys never race on a proper high speed high grip track just cuz someone posts on this MTX4 forum all the time doesn;t mean they know more or less, but just don't take their word as gospel because you see their name all the time
