OK here's what I have from the original drawings... These measurements are with all 0 deg inserts..
And my setup... I spent time figuring out every cars actual caster and kickup but I cant find that file... not sure where I saved it :/

One of the biggest improvements I made was in the front end... by using the camber washers I did, it adds a ton of steering by removing camber gain through the steering throw. Stock the car uses alot of caster compared to the normal, so when static camber is at 2-3deg and you turn the wheels... the camber grows to I think over 15deg at full throw (I did all these measurements many months ago, exact number might be different) It was a ton of camber gain, way more than any other car. Basically removing the tire surface from the track..... no bueno. After a ton of experimentation, these are the settings I arrived at and liked the most, the car made huge improvements on the track....
This is why I asked if you ran the entire setup... This took alot of time to arrive at and it fixed the entry to mid corner push the car had....

Thank you tony! That's great info!
I did start with your set up but it just didn't seem to work well for me. could be the dirt surface and grip differences.
Thank again for taking the time to post those pics
