i'm at 1.8 degrees rear, and running hot on the inside (possibly from my sliding shenanagins lol). plan to dial it back to 1.5 and see how that goes.
is your temp split same front and rear? 2 seems like a bit much in the back, since you ahve a good camber curve and stiff springs, but im no FD expert by any means

also- 26F?? i would assume we have similar weights front and rear, and i'm running 30F and 28R. grip seemed to go down any lower than like 29F. i know vette guys run 32F 29R

Yes, the split is similar front and rear.

I've had recommendations in the past to use 1.8 degrees, maybe I will start there.

Yes, I know the pressures seem low.

If they were too low, I would expect to see cooler temps in the middle of the tire, but did not.

I initially started these tires out around 32PSI, and keep dropping it until the butt dyno and times said they were working. I may try increasing tire pressure, but first I want to get the camber dialed in.

Maybe a smaller bar in the TriPoint swaybar setup too. The .180 bar was OK yesterday, but when the temps are cooler, it still pushes too much.

One of these days it will be all sorted out, and I will run out of excuses.
