i'm keeping the same settings:
front:
-3 degrees camber
1/4" toe out
rear:
-1 degrees camber
0" toe out
my tires are worn evenly, so i think it's pretty good. if anyone wants to auto-x you can move the toe out to the rear. that will really get the car rotating at lower speeds, but i wouldn't use it on a road course.
anyone up for a fender rolling party if i get one of these in the spring?

we can practice on the jeep and any other beaters before trying the nice cars

Would anyone be interested in an alignment day in the spring. I know I need one and mikie will as well. I know there is Apex in Marlboro area and there is a place in north shore that Treeski said was really good. It is all hand done by SCCA guys. I am sort of thinking the north shore place but if we could get a bunch of people together i am sure we could all get a killer deal.

i will learn you sometime. it's actually not all that complicated in theory. there is some art to it though- there are a lot of good general rules, but again, you have to try different things and really see what works.
the biggest thing is you have to account for how the car will be driven and make sure it is set up properly.

so here is the quote of the day for me....i was reading this article about fortune 500 companies that were involved with the *****. One of them is Siemens. I guess they tried to market a line named after Zyklon (the gas used in the holocaust). The author writes:
"Well, a few years ago, in an act of insensitive ****ery so colossal it could blot out the sun, Siemens tried to trademark the name "Zyklon" with the intent of marketing a series of products under the name. Including gas ovens."
Are people REALLY that obtuse?
