As soon as you get in the car, your weight adds more rear camber, then plant your foot to the floor and the rearward weight distribution adds even more. Pretty soon you only have have the first 4" of the inside of the tire really biting the pavement. *Facetiously speaking about the 4" measurement but you get the idea.

Yeah, the Z has a steep camber curve designed into the rear suspension. The more it squats, the more camber it gets.
