when you corner the wheels creates positive camber on the inside and negative on the outside ( \ \ ) so if the wheel is straight it has positive camber on 1 side and negative on the other if you have negative camber then the inside will be straight and outside will still have negative creating more grip on the inside tire ( ! \ )

Get your geometry set up Chris will make the world of difference :)
Learning engines is one thing. Suspension is a different ball game :) I chose suspension as I believe power is nothing without control ;)

If you're putting lots of camber on. Be it purposeful or not. Reduce your tyre pressure so the tyre can still make full road contact. But not so much you reduce steering response. Between 28-30.. 0.5psi makes a difference on a tyre, if you're worried about wall flex reduce your profile
If it helps mines set: .3 Toe out -2 degrees camber & iirc 5.5 positive caster (which is fixed). On 30psi front, 28psi rear :)

You can get technical and start adjusting coilovers to suit etc
 
I don't have the money to sort out her geometry yet. I got funds set aside for mapping and that is it. Camber is set to Max and I will fond somewhere who will do my alignment for bout hopefully. The quick fit machine does only bloody standard cars :(

Balanced bam. Front and back. That i could get done. Tracking no. Going to Lester them somewhat down the garage to get them to set up he machine.

Too low to get on the ramp? No problem with that at my place :) You have sone long bits of wood, we can do a redneck alignment weds evening to get it close if you like?
 
@frank @701micra on occasions last night I was hitting about .3/4 bar 6 odd psi. In boost. Is the 10* btdc okay or should I consider 5 before
