Outside edge worn down completely after 1 run and inside edge untouched, it looks like you need to dial in more negative camber to maximise your contact patches, slightly strange as I had to dial out almost all of my camber when I went from round buggy tyres to flat on-road tyres.

I wasn't going to post as I'm not a competitive drifter but for what its worth I have an on-road buggy and it drifts like a goodun if I'm not gentle on the sticks. It is setup as thus; camber adjusted so theres even wear across all tyres, rear toe-in reduced considerably though it still has some, 50k front, 100k center, 10k rear diff oils, I was on stock medium springs and if i remember right 40wt front/50wt rear oils, I'm now on hard springs and 70wt front/80wt rear oils but my shocks are laying down MUCH more than they were so do less work for small amounts of wheel movement, ride-height so lower arms are level, Medial Pro Tarmac 2 tyres.
