Default C-6 align vs. C-5 question

I just got my new 08 C-6 Z-51, A6.
I autocross & had a 01 Vert with adjustable suspension.
I had it aligned with the following specs:
front: -1.0 camber, 8.0 caster & zero toe
rear: -1.0 camber with .06 toe IN on each side with rear sum toe of .12 IN.

Is there any reason or need to change these settings on my new 08 when I have it aligned?

The car is driven approx. 6k to 8k a year with about 10 weekends of autocrossing.
The above settings produced almost even wear on the C-5 track tires (Kumho Exsta MX) with very little difference on the street tires (stock GY F1 EMTs as delivered).
The 08 has F1 supercar EMTs & I plan on street tires being GY F1 GS-D3 EMTs (much better if it rains than supercars). After the supercars wear out not sure what track tires (pole positions, D-3, supercar, PS2s)will purchase but drive to events 120-500 miles away (closest is 120) so can't go super soft with track tires.
Thanks
