Hey Art,

I'm gonna be getting an alignment done next week. Any tips? I'm looking for a good street/autoX alignment.

I was thinking:

Camber: -0.5 each side
Caster: +4.0
Toe: 0 to 1/16" total toe-in

P.S. I just bought Kumhos...now if I can just figure out a way to get 'em down to Bowling Green this year.

I don't have the info here right now.

I know we went went max neg camber allowed by factory adjustments ... it's not much, and the toe was at zero. I'm not sure what the caster setting is.

I did get a lot of strange wear on the inside blocks of the front tires. I haven't had it analyzed yet but think I may need to run just a little toe-in .... like you're thinking.

How about I just concede right now

Maybe he is, maybe he ain't!! Maybe he's just giving false intelligence!! What was the margin last year. 8 tenths?? Art will make it bigger this year. Be careful what you ask for John!!

Ha ha. I better get a job, I am losing it.

Hey John ... I guess it's time we get the friendly "trash talking" going, eh?

How's your autoX season been?

I've been struggling, but I think I'll be peaking mid-September [Big Grin]

Actually it's been a very slow autoX season. I've been outta town on travel so much that I haven't had a whole lot of time to hit the parking lots. That and I've been getting into road racing events this year.

But I'm sure I'll be up for the challenge come September 20!! [Smile]
