Interesting about the camber, but I bet you're right. With my PDI, I asked for as much neg camber as they could get. I didn't get to see the specs though, so I'm not sure what they got.
Yeah, stock camber is 0 so if they maxed it, you "might" get -0.25.

I think a stock suspension FR-S could probably use more camber than one with stiffer springs, but I was really surprised at the tire temps, as -2 is really not that much normally.

As far as laptimes go, I was doing 2:38's last year on crazy hot days, and managed a 2:34 on a cooler summer day. I think I would have been closer to the 2:40's on stock stuff for sure.
