Suspension Bushing Question

On the C5 Z06, ghoffman posted this:
Quote:
The T1 camber plates are not always appropriate for all tracks. We never use them in the back because with them there is too much camber for most tracks, and only selectivly use them in the front. Especially with urethane or delrin bushings, less camber is needed since under load the changes are much less.
Now, C&D and some Internet reviewers have indicated that the C6 Z06 can be fidgety in a race track's bumpy turn. However, on the street, nothing but positive raves.

Could it be that under race track loads the bushings deflect to allow unfavorable bump steer? If so, would polyurethane bushings fix the problem? Or would they have too big a street penalty?
