can't see it at work..

But, I've heard the monaro's IRS has camber changes thru its suspension travel.. Some source say it gets obvious when you start running wide rubber out back. How bad it actually is and how much is affect, I dunno. Wonder if anybody that actually competitevely races them can chime in...

Since this is GTO related, I figured I'd post it here.
