Default alignment after lowering

So I took my car today to finally get aligned. Getting ready so I can go to the vette expo this weekend. Got there and put on the rack. What do ya know, its pretty much in spec. There was only one wheel that needing a slight slight adjustment. So after adjusting the one small caster on one I was on my way. What are the odds of having a good alignment when going even after lowering??

An inherently good design ensures minimal bump steer if you're in the suspension's sweet spot. This car is designed to operate at low ride heights, that's why. You should have gained static camber, did you?
