I saw that Abbott racing recommends some negative camber for racing and I think they said around -1.0 for the front and rear.
I lowered my ng900 with Voxtland springs and it came out about -1.2 camber on both the fronts and the rear. The right side of my rear is almost -1.8 and the left side rear is -1.5 and my rf is -1.2 and my lf was almost -1.7, I had to put in a used rf strut assembly and now both fronts are -1.2 or so. Its great for cornering, but eats tires fast!
Nick at GS sells the camber plates for the rear so you can dial them in to the wanted amount of camber and also make them both the same!
If you wanted total control of castor and camber, you could open the entire hole up in the front and weld up a plate on each side that gave you adjustability of both caster and camber. They make adjustable plates that can be moved and adjusted for track conditions. Nick at GS also sells a fully adjustable coil over system for the ng900's.
If you had the fully adjustable coil over system with the ability to adjust castor and camber, you could really dial it in for the track!
I saw on street-tuner challenge the teams for both the evo and the ford focus opened up the hole and ground it flush and welded on an adjustable plate for the ability to change the castor and cambor for racing on the track.
Abbott makes a big deal out of making the rear axles much stronger and more true for the tracking angle. I know my ng900 was off and they said that most were off and that has a big effect on the handling. Good Luck,
John
