I've had two responses privately, hope the individuals don't mind me saying:

1.  Camber is generally better for racing

2.  Caster is better, because the more positive caster you have, the more
negative camber you have for racing.

I agree with both, its just I'm trying to find the balance.

I'm trying to visualize the most common radius turn I take in autox, and
imagine which direction the outside tire points, then I figure slotting the
strut in the perpendicular direction would be best.

How does that sound?
