My car (0217) is running about 3.0 degree roughly, using AST top mounts and one set of camber correction bolts at max negative adjustment.

Leighanne's now runs about 1.5/2.0 negative more than normal, as you can see on her black wheeled track car below :)

You can feel the difference on turn in, it feels very sharp now, that with good R1R rubber and a Gripper LSD makes it a pretty hard car to shake off on the twisties...in fact no-one has so far haha.

LA's car is more raw than mine, and only a bit slower surprisingly.

The final pic here, the middle Williams is running standard so you can see the difference between them...

Roll on Anglesey ;)

I'm liking it a lot as it is set tbh. Only had it like this for a day, and the drive home was too short so I carried on going :twisted:

how accurate have you got your camber - is it bang on 3degrees - how did you measure it ?

LEIGH-ANNE

I can get a camber gauge!!!! If you simply use the manufacturer claims of what the adjustment is then add the two together it should give the total camber, no?

Ok, screw you guys, I've just bought a +6 / -6 camber & castor gauge which I shall use when I 'uprate' my brake discs over the next few days.

I'll show you! Mwahahahaaaaa!

Anyone know what the 16v's ran as std camber?

Always looked reasonably sizable when I ran 195/50s.

Not sure what valvers run. It's hard to say as the wheels sit further in the arches, but I think there is some negative there, yes.

I will give that setup a go mate. Have to get the tow specified at the tracking place I go to...need to get it done soon anyway.
