Indy Rear Camber
Hi All
At what camber have u set the rear of the Indy.
At the moment mine is set at 0 deg's and it tends to brake away sooner than I had expected  would going to half a deg negative
help

Yes negative camber is a good idea. I have heard of people using anywhere between 1/2 and 2 1/2 deg.
under heavy cornering the body roll causes the geometry to go positive camber at the rear so you need to set it up with some negative at rest to
compensate.
Cheers

My Indy has been set up at 0.5 digrees neg all round. I have not tested it yet but my last Indy which was set up the same was very hard to break the
back end away.

Hi,i've set mine at 1 degree neg.and find it's better but still breaks away easily,perhaps its my aggressive driving tecnique,so my
daughter says( shes passed her test now!)
Must admit though droppng the tyre pressure to 17 psi helped even more.
Once I've finished a project why do I start another?

Hi Kev,
Shame you didn't ask the experts before we set it up Looks like you need to ask Gary nicely to borrow his Camber Gauge gain
