Drifters, Rear Camber... Grip vs Tire Wear

[derass]

It is my understanding that some camber is beneficial for track driving, as the body rolls in a turn, negative camber allows for a flat contact patch at the outer wheel.

My car is setup at -2.5 camber at the rear. The problem I have is with tire wear. Only 3/4 of the width of the tire gets used up, so I try to flip the tires halfway through their life, this is a hassle. Sometimes, I let a session go too long without checking the tires and end up wearing the inside of the tires to the belts while the outer edge is still nearly new. I find that frustrating as it feels like a waste of money.

I spoke with Chris Forsberg while we were changing tires at Englishtown, and he said to me, just by looking at the tires I was flipping, that I am running too much camber and that I should run 0 like him, as he showed me a evenly burnt tire from his missle. I didn't think to ask him all this.

So my question is, it is worth sacrifcing cornering grip for even tire wear? What is your opionion on the matter? Thanks!
