Tue. night I installed the M3 bushings I'd picked up from Brian and then I got the car aligned yesterday. Out of curiosity I had him max out the camber to see what I can get. Turns out I can get 4*. I had him set it to -3.8 up front with 1/8" toe out. The rear is -2.5* and 1/16" toe in. It may be too much camber, but we'll see on the 28th.
So then I had him increase the camber in the posititive direction until the toe was 1/16" inward. Camber on the right side increased to -3.3, but the driver's side didn't really change at all. I'm guessing it's attibutable to one of many factors, but I'm not too worried. These tires were cheap and my race alignment is set.
Anyway, I'll be really anxious to see how the car does with this much camber. It sure feels better with the front bushings in. Now I need to do the rears.
BTW, anyone do their own alignments? I'm researching techniques to do this at home instead of taking it somewhere....
