clockwise track means more wear on the left tire which makes sense. there's chunking on the inside too, so i think more a tire pressure issue than camber. i do agree it's due to the edges heating - pyrometer would help you with that - but heating because of under-pressure. and you can't go by cold pressure at all; temp of track, air temp, length of session, etc., will all affect how much the tire heats = how much the pressure changes. i tend to consider my first session as a throw-away, just to get my tires to temp so i can semi-accurately get my pressures right. first thing at end of session should be pressure check - even before taking off your helmet. my fronts can go from 29 cold to 40 hot depending on temps and how stupid i am driving; sometimes only half that. fyi, planet 9 has a lot of chat about track tire pressures for the cayman and even specifically for the super sports.
