    I am wondering about the left rear tire (Hoosier 305/35-18) in the second picture – normal? - it might be the way the picture is taken

    Yep, normal for a corner exit shot. You could put more camber on if you like, but study the tyre wear and temperature and make a decision based on the whole lap and required distance from the tyre, and not one corner....

    thanks Phil - Tire temperature did develop nicely and I had them dialed in surprisingly quickly - I was wondering more about the tire / wheel combination - the Hoosier is speced for 11” and I use them on 10.5” wheels - this will have an impact on sidewall stability I assume

    Theoretically yes, but you're only talking 5% difference here. Even the best pro's make changes in 10% increments unless you're trying to find milliseconds....

    Play around with pressures and alignment. Go extreme either way, the rear of 360 is super sensitive, especially to braking forces.
