Default damn, did you know this about camber?

I did and camber and toe setting today. I was going to sit into my car when my camber was at -1.5 all around. The camber showed -2 degs on right front side when I was sitting on the driver side. I was very confused, cause I thought camber would be increasing on that side I sit.

I setted it at -1.5 degs camber all around and toe front ZERO, toe out in rear 0.09. Is that good for road/track race?

When I adjusted the toe in the rear, camber was coming out at -2 degrees. Well, I will life with it, cause I did 3 hours camber/tow setting. I was tired of this ****.

If you adjust toe in front, camber will not change. If you adjust toe in the rear, camber will affect.

I don' get that toe in out story. I did a search and read about 20+ threads. Finaly I know less now than before I read all the statement .......should I toe in or out for ttrack racing and road racing.

I think my camber is a cool mix for road driving and some open track days. But what's about toe. In or out? in front or rear.

Toe out in front for track. at the very least at zer in rear.

Mine is set at 0.07" out on each front tire.

In the rear, I have zero toe, and was told by someone I would call 'knowledgable' that upon turn in, zero toe becomes 0.04" (1/25") toe OUT, the trailing arm allows this 0.04" difference in toe.

the metric system would work so much easier than all this SI crap.

Just set it at 3-4mm total toe out (1.5-2mm each side) in front and zero in rear.
