Anyone track their c63 - camber adjustment / wear rates
Discussion
Wondering if anyone regularly tracks their c63 in the uk. I fancy doing a few next year but the last time I did one it chewed the front tyres in a single day due to lack of neg camber.
I see in America Kmac offer both camber adjustable bushings and top mounts for stock suspension but not sure if anyone in the uk is using this or if there is another solution.
I’d also be interested to hear ware rates for tyres brake pads and discs.

I'm in the process of making my SLK 320 more 'track friendly'.
A large part of that process was getting the geo set up correctly for 'fast road' and then tinkering from there. All of this has been carried out by a motorsport specialist. I'd recommend speaking to a similar specialist in your area (or MBZ specialist, nationally) to see what they think, if you don't get a response from PH.
I do know that a fast road set up will be different to a track set up so, the car will either be compromised on the road or you'll need to adjust it after tracking, which may be more or less convenient depending on the DIY adjustabilty...
Another option is that a fast road set up may give the track advantage over the 'standard OEM' set up without the need to go too extreme on a track specific only set up.
Good luck with the changes - which tracks are you thinking of making a visit too? (this can also have an impact on the specific set up chosen).
