some of you mentioned Smart Racing for camber plates.. I can;'t seem to find anything other than their strut monoball setup online. Since I got bumped to D Prepared, i'm going ahead and doing everything i can do to the car, and am still searching for a good camberplate setup

I bumped up a club member's 997 GT3 from -2.2 to -3.0 and the difference on the track was pretty drastic. The car really turns in now, and there were no negative effects on braking. Still that setting was a guestimate and tire temps really need to be taken, but he keeps running different brands of tires so we probably will not bother until he settles on one type.

I was more wondering if one front was -1 and the other -3.2, just what that difference between the two might result in? Having the different cambers running at the same time and with the lower number on the RHS, would this have reduced my ability to turn into Left hand corners at high speed?

Paolo, My advice stands. Deliver the to Oxford, Ct., Get the car set up correctly and save yourself alot of time, money and concern about the proper setup of your car.

Hey, they don't call you fast Freddy for nothing........
Don't worry, I understand, you are a busy racer, especially now that you are sought after to co-drive spec. Miatas and everything.......
