Where you really ↑↑↑↑ don't have enough camber isn't up front. But that's a bit beyond this discussion so far (and unfortunately well past STX).

Yeah well, unfortunately that is the nature of a live axle car... Outside rear always goes to positive camber under body roll... sadly it isn't in any class short of Modified I don't think to either camber the live axle or swap to an IRS (not really on my list of things to do!). The front is easy to fix, I just have yet to do it for budget reasons and all that. =\ I think the angle of the picture may be exaggerating it a little bit too. Same with the body roll.

I autocross my '10 GT and the first thing I did was struts/shocks (D specs) and sway bars (FRPP) w/adjustable front. Huge difference. I run in STX and with my co-driver we have started to beat the AWD cars in the class and have PAX'd 1,2. I just recently added FRPP P springs and camber bolts to get my camber back to stock for street driving. Next event is the 23rd but I can tell these springs will help a lot with body roll. I think the adjustability helps in making the car handle how you want, whether spirited or just a daily commute. Just my .02
