The ALK adds static & dynamic castor, the cheap version is to swap the top mounts from left to right and use them to increase castor instead of camber. If camber still needs increasing, use bolts.

No, you can do the top mount swap to get loads of castor, OR buy an ALK and leave the tops to adjust camber only.
Std road cars run a few (4-7) degrees of castor, but pukka track cars run 10 degrees or so.
Mine's still a road car so I haven't gone that far yet !
