Someone asked a question about camber rise a page or so back. I am not too sure about the correct answer but I think it would be useful to have more camber rise on a slippery bumpy track or if you are looking for more rear grip on mid corner to exit. Please someone who knows for sure feel free to correct or expand.

Diff/One way position
What is the difference in handling when you set the front diff/one way on the high or low position? Same for the rear diff...

In the front you will get problems with the diff rubbing the servo saver.
In the rear it is installed in the lowest position, which is best for CG. I'd see no gain in bringing it up....

But guys, I am still having the same problem. The ass is loose. Eveytime I come onto the power mid corner and corner exit, and if i come on too quickly, the ass comes out. Rear RC is at the lowest, springs are red, rear downstop is set to 5, camber is 3 with camber rise is 5.
Not sure what i am doing wrong here

I think the opposite is true (at least from tyre-wear viewpoint), because on very slipery track you can go with less camber and have a rear tyre worn slightly conical to iniside. On really high grip tracks with fast sweepers usually you should adjust a lot of static camber and the rear outer tyre still has smaller outer diameter (conical to outside). In this case adjusting more camber-gain (shorter link) is very useful.

Although it is true in higher grip you will need more static camber.
If the short link works is something to test at your track, as it can change from track to track. In general, expect more steering, and at some tracks better tractin out of corners (especially hairpins).
But it can make the car unpredictable and unstable under braking.
It's an easy change though. I have two sets of arms and leave the inner screw in place when I switch to the outer position. That way the change is a two minute job.
