Will being too low limit Camber?

Will being too low limit Camber?
lowered my car on an uneven surface (i knew it was a bad idea, but was in a rush to get it ready for Road Atlanta) then got it aligned. was only able to get -3* in the front. car has koni's with ground controls and offset lower ball joints. I think i should be able to get more than -3*. then after the race, i measured ride height on a nice flat surface. the front was about an inch lower than what i want.
would this extremely low front end limit camber?

Nope, you'll continue gaining camber as the suspension compresses.
Here's the front camber curve, as I measured it. I believe the camber adjuster was maxed out for this measurement. Dashed line represents ~stock ride height.
Rear curve:

not what i wanted to hear. i tapped a wall last november, and was hoping that that hadn't caused any damage to the control arms to keep from getting the camber i need.
i may need to check to see if the arms are straight. and also check the camber bolts to make sure the alignment shop didn't mess up.

You will never tell if the control arms are bent just by looking. Get your ride height situated, see if with the same shock height will give you the same ride height side to side, that's one way to see of they are bent and if you don't see anything off after that, get an alignment and ask them to put the same specs side to side, and it will usually show there, the hubs on the s2k are more susceptible to bending the the control arms just a heads up if you hit something.
