No way you are getting decent track handling under 2 degrees. Need more like 3-3.5 degrees.

Tracks like Daytona we run 4.5 degrees.
OK, let me clarify. By "track car", I really mean street car capable of track days. I do not mean full on race car. My apologies for that confusion.

The "street cars capable of track days" that I set up with 2 degrees of camber or less were double wishbone front suspension, with very good camber gain curves (NA Miata and RX-8). That is why I was making note of the different suspension types. If you read my post again you can see that I am stating that toe wears tires, not camber.
