Not the happiest with my old alignment so Im changing it up this friday. Tjis car see's track days and is street drivin 3-4 times a week with ease

thanks in advance



Old settings

Caster front 6.6
Camber front -2.2
toe front 0

Camber rear -2.6
Toe rear .10 per side total .20 toe in



NEW SETTINGS IM GOING TO TRY:

Caster still not sure 6.6 or more as I can max it at around 6.9?
Camber front -3.25
Toe front 0

Camber rear -2.75
Toe rear .15 per side for total of .30 in

I hope this keeps the tail a little more happy and allowing me to enter and exit at greater speeds!

Anything else you guys think, let me know,

thanks Ken

 

Increasing the front neg camber by a degree and leaving the rear essentially unchanged (~-2.7) is not going to help tame the rear although increasing rear tow in might help a little.

 

Well ill more then likely switch to -3 rear and -3.25 front, By adding that extra .5 per side in the rear should already help from what Ive been told but open to options still

 

Hum, wish more peeps chimed in that track a lot more often but I go tomorrow at 11am so ill see what i decide come crunch time.

 

You're not going to get any meaningful feedback without describing your setup and what you're trying to accomplish. At first I thought "keep(ing) the tail a little more happy" mean getting more rotation, but on second read it's not clear what you're trying to accomplish.

 

If you want to please the tail, try removing some of that rear toe-in. I doubt adding crazy amounts of front camber will do much to amuse or fill the rear with joy.

How is the front feeling? Is it happy or sad?

 

lol, I hear you guys. On corner exit after the apex the tail often finds its way to slide out. As said this is on rear 255-45-17 dunlop direzza star specs.

Interesting you say to remove rear toe in to keep the tail less prone to sliding out. Although Its differennt for everyone.

Well lets hope my car even makes it up onto their ramp :S Ill post final results after and let you all know how she drives and first track event is 2 weeks.

thanks again and sorry for not providing more info.

 

maybe try a lower relative ride height in the rear, too?

 

How are tire temperatures across the tread? Are they even across from the outside shoulder to the inside shoulder?

Are you getting a lot of wear on the outside or inside of the shoulder in particular? Or generally pretty even?

If you are trying to tame the rear end (meaning less tail happy) and you have adjustable shocks try lowering just the rebound a click to soften the damping of the rear.
