Hi. I think if i had 2 inboard +1 outboard the rear of woud roll a little more and the car would also be smoother entering the corner and have more steering on exit.
If i had 3deg all inboard the rear would stay flatter, have more entry corner steering and less exit. Inboard toe makes the rear feel stffer and has better forward traction. I like the way that the 1deg outboard makes the rear of the car roll, that is why i use them.

For carpet i use 1deg outboard a lot, for asphalt i normally run all inboard toe. Thanks!
