400/600 would be very soft for a full race car. The 964 cups have 600/800 progressive springs, and it is way too soft (rules prevent spring changes). GT cars are running in the 900-1000f/1000-1400r rates, and those are only 2200-2400lb cars.

As for camber, top 996 cup drivers will run over -5 degrees in the front. In my class (964 cups), we run over -3.5 but less than -4.5 (specific number is a trade secret ). So I think your estimates are way off, and as I said before, largely depend on how good the driver is.
