Less than 10 degrees, it certainly wasn't a lot, I just wasn't sure if I should be going with more camber. However, given how much more traction I've got in the front now, I expect I'll be pulling higher total G forces and hence working the outside of the tyre harder. I'll take temps again at the next event to see how it looks and report back.

Less than 10 degrees is good. You don't want to be over that by too much though. Find out how they do at the next one and go from there.

On your caster. Is that positive or negative number?
