I wish we had the weather to run semi-slicks all year round.

What sort of impact will this have on tyre wear? I assume the tyres will last less time?

 

[N0ddie]

I also found that the more negative camber you add the more difficult it is the get a good start, without wheelspin, off the line?

 

[fano45]

Definitely not hours then:thumbup:

 

[simoxmino]

yes, on straight line there is less tyre contact surface and them are ruined on internal side.. i don't know how many...


the clio cup race car of my mechanical run so:
4.5° camber front
6° camber rear
rear toe open of 5mm for side

 

[dangerdaz]

So how much neg camber is a good compromise for road n track?

imho, -2°

 

[N0ddie]

I was thinking about -2 degrees myself. A2on said he ran for 12000ish miles (I think) with -2.25 on his Astra and he didnt have any unnecessary wear issues.

Think I'd go -2 just to be on the safe side.

My Clio has -1.14° -> -1.18°. I would love a -2° camber.

I've got the KW last week and....not sure how far I should go with the topmounts...?
Mostly driven - fast - one the streets, and two or three Trackdays.
Thinking of 1,6 - 1,8 or something...hhhmmm :blink:

 

[A2ON]

As people say 2 is good i ran 2.25 but then got told for cadwell i could increase it by 0.25 so 2.5 to get max results but 2 on a light road car like clio is fine .

dont kw come with 1/2 degree more negative in built anyway

 

[Savage]

Do you use Semis or street tires ?

 

[Ollie RS]

Saw this last night in the flesh, a truly epic car! so much work done to it!

^^^^Semi's Toyo R888's ^^^

Yes on Simos car, but I was asking A2ON cause he sayed he run 2,5 neg camber.

 

[Yiannis197]

4.5° camber front
6° camber rear

silly question maybe but how do they adjust the rear camber?

 

[simoxmino]

There are a camber plate
They regulate camber or toe.

-7711160169 Piastra convergenza 1°
-7711160170 Piastra convergenza 30'
-7711160171 Piastra convergenza 20'
-7711160172 Piastra convergenza 10'
-7711160173 Piastra camber 1°
-7711160174 Piastra camber 30'
-7711160175 Piastra camber 20'
-7711160176 Piastra camber 10'

 

[simoxmino]

Next sunday i'll go (with ollie and some friends) to make a trackday in Franciacorta circuit.
I'll test the adjustable topmount!
I hope to make a better time, i hope at least 1sec less..

wow I'm really impressed mate. You do know your stuff Thanks

They are not too expensive those rear plates either IIRC.
