Alignment settings for a ZO6 - track days
I am looking for some guidance on the alignment settings that you find are most effective on the ZO6 during track days.
I run a stock ZO6, lowered with Hoosier Track tires.
I have maxed out the negative camber, so am mostly looking for toe settings, front and rear.
Thanks,
Tom

Re: Alignment settings for a ZO6 - track days (tlang)
What camber are you running?
I currently run 1 in the rear, and 2 in the front. I can go up to 2.2 in the front, but the tires seem to wear very well at this settings. Don't forget to dial in some postive caster for the front. I have alot in mine, and I really like it. Most people I have talked to agree that any gains you may (or may not actually) get from toe isn't worth the extra tire wear.
Just my 2 cents.

Just remember that we all have different driving styles and what alignment settings work for one person may not work for another.
Stay within stock toe settings and save the tires. The car is very fast on track with stock settings.
