Ok, people have said they run -2 or even -4 camber on the track. I know it's stupid to compare a video game to real life but there shouldn't be that much a difference.

I put a car at -2 camber front and -1 camber rear and cornered hard. With load on the suspension, the camber doesn't even come remotely close to 0 degrees. So wouldn't running -2 camber be overkill even for those who use them on the track? I believe we have to take the shocks/ spring stiffness into account too but can anyone give me a good explanation?

 

with a more negative camber, the tires can grip more during turns. however, there should be a balance of suspension settings as camber does not help with straight away grip, acceleration and braking, not to mention tirewear. to those who actually race, handling is a priority than going straight. i think -4 degrees is overkill, imho.

 

are you looking at the camber on the inside or outside wheel? Negative camber helps the outside wheel maintain grip because the suspension on that side uncompresses in a turn adding positive camber. The negative camber is to account for that so the outside tire maintains complete contact.
