The amount of camber you need depends on a lot of things. I don't have enough wear on my nt-01s yet to guage the cars behavior in thise regard. So far it appears to do better than I expected. It also varries a lot from tire to tire.

On one car I had 048s wear even, RA-1s wear very uneven, and the A6s a little uneven but not as bad as the RA-1s. Same track springs and alignment for all.
Cars with a lot of castor which promotes lots of camber gain usually do not need a lot of static camber which is a good thing.Threshold braking with a lot of negative can be a very frustrating thing also.Lighter cars like your Lotus usually do not need to be as extreme is alignment settings as a heavier car as they tend to have better geometry from the start.
