I did, however, bump in to Will Turner at one of my events and asked him the same question. His answer was that his team runs 4 - 5 degrees of negative camber on their race cars. So, that's a good baseline metric to compare to, especially if you see aggressive wear.

I live in the same town as Will Turner and he does indeed run 4-5 degrees on the race cars. Lots of things on the race cars we do not have on our street cars. True slicks, solid race bushings & motor mounts, lots of downforce, and the list goes on...If your running 200 wear tires a little less front camber might be optimum, but on either DOT Race tires like the Hoosiers, BFG's, etc...your going to need much more...
