I'm new at this so please bear with me....Anybody know of any tricks to increase the right front camber on an 88 Ford Escort for 1/4 mile asphalt track?  Not much room at top of strut tower so leaning in doesn't seem to be an option.  I've heard of oblonging bolt holes at bottom but that would only get me about 1/2 - 1 degree.....I'm looking for about 6 degrees.

i removeed the top bolt and went to a smaller one grade eight, this will give more camber negative , wont  break either i run on a 36 degree banking and never a problem .do the same on the left front positive camber . if it dont hold put washers on the outside of the strut and weld into place

on my sons 89 escort we cut the lower control arm and added a one inch piece of stock steel then oblonged the holes of the strut tower
