rear camber link postion

Quick question re suspension setup:

The rear inside camber linkage has two mounting holes. I know that using either position changes the arc or camber angle of the tyre during suspension compression etc, but how does it affect the cars handling?

e.g. when/why would I need to use the top hole?

Lycan,
I beleive that if you alter the camber link to the top hole it will allow for more roll or transition of weight quicker side to side, possibly this may be used on lower traction type of tracks. I use the lower hole myself, my track has traction like running on carpet. But it doesnt ever hurt to experiment a little. The only things I have changed from a kit setup would be the springs, shock positions. I use outer holes on the tower f&r, with K magic purple springs on the rear, and K magic Aqua on the frt. The car is unstoppable. I just installed universals on the frt, tommorrow will be the test. I have the opportunity to run all year round, a local indoor asphalt track is a nice thing to have.
