Negative toe number= toe OUT, Positive= toe IN?
I mean the numbers you get from an alignment machine print out...
I'm pretty sure I have it right, but need to verify please...

Several emails with Michael on this topic today. I had originally gotten some of the relationships backwards. Hopefully the comments are correct now. If anyone else cares to review, it's here:

Can't speak for aggressive, collection of what I've read here with some feedback from David Farmer.

Am I right or have I gone looking at this too long?

Not taken as pestering, all good discussion. I want to make sure the comments are accurate. As for the values, I have experience with the Moderate column, since the days of my '02 Z06. Can't speak for Aggressive settings, will need input from the hard core racers here.
I found good information in these articles.

I doubt that you want to run toe out in the rear in either autocross or lapping days in a C5 or C6. What Z06-Nomad says is what I was questioning in my previous post.
