I am currently running the stock kit rear hub carriers and find that everything is running nicely and the car is handling well, however I notice there is an option for either 0.5 degree or 1 degree aluminum hubs. I was wondering what effect these hubs will have on the cars handling. The Hotbodies website gives no details as to what the actual benefits of this option part would be and what type of track it is best suited to. Any help much appreciated.

he is asking about the hubs, not blocks, ie where the wheel bearings are, that will alter outboard toe in/out, altering the inboard suspension mounts will alter inboard toe in/out.
he asks about these
#61512 - ALUMINIUM REAR HUB CARRIER (0.5Degrees/Purple) Option rear hub carriers for the Cyclone D4 allow you to subtely alter the suspension characteristics for the car, giving you extra opportunities...
#61513 - ALUMINIUM REAR HUB CARRIER (1Degrees/Purple) Option rear hub carriers for the Cyclone D4 allow you to subtely alter the suspension characteristics for the car, giving you extra opportunities...
not these
#61463 - REAR SUSPENSION BLOCK (2.5 Degrees/Aluminium/Black) Optional rear suspension blocks for the Cyclone D4 allow you
to alter the inboard toe at the rear of the buggy, giving you more tuning options...
what effect can be seen here

in inboard blocks alter inboard toe in/out and the outboard alter outboard.
runing the .5 out board on std inboard blocks will give you 3.5 toe in
hope that makes it clear
running the 2.5 inboard blocks and .5 rear hubs will give a longer wheel base and 3 deg toe in
