that second link is really useful as a quick overview and troubleshooting on getting to where you want to be...

Also important to note that less body roll does not change load transfer.

Wasnt covered in that article but you need a bit of body roll so that camber can be gained during cornering, and obviously on a heavier car the tire is going to want to roll a bit more, thus more camber will be needed...
