my car is low but i think there's a little more room than a normal height of a shoe.
my rear camber is around -1.7. Should i set it more positive>?

NO, you should set it to Zero or -0.5 max. This will let the wheel gain negative camber in a turn or drift allowing for contact patch (more grip). If it was set to positive 0.5 then it would go to zero under load,and sense your car will be in a lean it will be like positive still. Got it?


The reason Chris and a few other big shot in formula D run positive is because we run big bang tracks were there is a long drift in one direction with a quick switch and then back to the same Direction. So Irwindale for example. Right rear -0.0 to -0.5 camber 30psi, Left rear +0.5 to +1.0 camber 25psi. They even go as far as towing the car to the track. right rear 1/4 toe out, left rear 1/4 toe in.

These are examples and my opinion, have fun.
