Default HELP on alignment!!!!

I am supposed to be headed to Gingerman this evening. Had the alignment changed on the '04 Z06 and now it feels like the rear end id darting around!!! Any idea what it might be? Maybe to much toe out?

Did you get the computer printout of the "After" alignment specs?

Yes and I just figured out they have the front and rear toe way out of wack!!


Front: left
Camber -2.0 OK
Caster 6.0 OK but should be matched right to left
Toe 0.82 SHOULD BE 0.1 out

Front Right
Camber -1.6 OK
Caster 7.3 OK but should be matched right to left
0.81 SHOULD BE 0.1 out

Front
Cross Camber -0.4
Cross Caster -1.3 SHOULD BE 0
Cross SAI -0.6
Total Toe 1.63 SHOULD BE 0.2


Rear left
Camber -1.4
Toe 1.59 SHOULD BE 0.1 in

Rear Right
Camber -1.4
Toe 1.65 SHOULD BE 0.1 in

Rear
Cross Camber 0.0
Total Toe 3.23 Should be 0.2

My wife picked the car up and I did not look at the sheet until this morning after a test drive told me something was way out of wack!!

Taking it back to the alignment shop in a couple of hours. Just once I would like to have a track weekend with no last minute emergencies!!!!
