Porsche Crest Track tire camber and pressures?

I am trying to find some good data as to tire set up on a well dialed in 911 to use as reference.

Thus:

What tire are you running?

How stiff is you car (stock, street/sport, full race)?

How much rear neg camber?

What are best tire presures, hot or cold?

Rim width and tire size?

Is it working well (good lap times, equalized temps)?

Or what ever you think is relevant or belive to be a best practices set up.

Big thanks in advance.

My thoughts in bold.

How much rear neg camber? -3 degrees (-2 in front)

What are best tire presures, hot or cold? hot pressures = 34 lbs (all 4 corners)

Rim width and tire size? 7X16 and 8X16

Is it working well (good lap times, equalized temps)? Best setup I've had so far. Follows the Smart Racing suspension guide recommendations (except for shock valving).

Or what ever you think is relevant or belive to be a best practices set up. Toe out in front and toe in in rear has has been the ticket for stability and good turn-in. The addition of negative camber really made a difference in grip and lap times. Balancing weight between front wheels seems to have improved braking stability.

Big thanks in advance.
