Default Adjustable front camber arms - How do they affect toe?

I have the evo adjustable camber arms and was wondering if anyone know changing the camber affects the toe? I add about -1.5 degrees camber when I am at the track and take it back out before the ride home. What is this doing to my toe? Has anyone measured this??

thanks

Any change in the suspension setting will affect the other settings. How much I don't know. I believe when you add neg. camber you create more toe out.

i agree. more negative camber will give you more toe out. this is good for the track, however. toe out is better than toe in for turns, but you will probably have to wrestle the wheel on the straights.

but you probably already knew that.

I have the 350evo adjustable camber arms. I found it didn't really affect toe since it is a slide plate on the top. When I had mine on the alignment rack I noticed it didn't really change from full negative camber to full positive.

Toe out is a good thing on the track, so if adding neg adds a trivial amt of toe out that is a good thing.
Rednezz thanks for posting your experience on the alignment rack
