then when you drop the block down to 10deg_reactive position it has 1 deg of caster limit, until you pop the 3 deg shim out...giving you 4 deg limit.

Otherwise why would HPI have such a thick clip in caster shim in those pics????? that shim MUST compensate for the caster block being narrowed, which would give it a larger range of caster adjustment.

does that make sense?

I dont know if you know, but Jason (protc3) has the BMI DB12R out now, and I will put money on it that the DB12R WILL blow the doors off the cyclone 12....... Dont get me wrong, Im a HB guy! I race a moore speed cyclone, But with saying he has a 12th out, he made the car, so I think he knows what he's talking about...
