Dean and I've found that -1deg camber and a about 1/16" toe in (perfect for the street) translates into -2.5 to -3deg camber and about 1/8" toe out (perfect for the track/AutoX)!
So, if you're willing to take the time to adjust your camber at each event, you can have the agressive handling for the track w/o the awful tire wear on the street.

Actually, Neither of us can add... 1/8+1/8=1/4, not 1/16...
Each degree of front camber = 3/8" total Toe... Right now I am at 1/4" at -2.5 degrees camber for the street which translated to 1/8" out at -3.5 degrees camber.
The extra in is actually good for cars with a lot of camber as it rudeces the inside wear a bit by making the tire roll a littel more like an ice cream cone.
