that was Cups....slicks is well different. Also that was Cup settings for a cmpromise as its a rioad and track car unlike yours which is i guess track only.,

youd need to get pyro testig and advice and to ask soemone more knowledgable than me, but i think youll be around -5 deg


may not be the problem though

I run -5 to -6 front camber on slicks.

Makes a massive difference on turn in.

I left it like it yesterday on a wet track and It wasn't to bad either.

-3.2 ish is perfect for cups and even wear.

I really need someone with a pyro thing.

Still not done a dry UK track day, managed 4 sessions yesterday, 3 wet, one damp. Car had great grip on Goodyear Eagle F1's.

Way to little camber -5, Slicks have a much flatter surface area, also was your temp hot or cold ?? and another thing is they look to narrow for your rims which wont help with temps ?

using 235 on 9 inch rims which is the minimum width, pressure was 28 hot. What camber would you recommend front and back.
