What toe settings do you guys like for this car?

I personally am like Jive Turkey here and like just a tad of toe in in the rear for stability. However I have been on track with ZERO toe in the rear with only one spin @ putnam

The setup that I have enjoyed the most was as much camber up front as possible (-3+) with zero toe and -2 in the rear with a little toe in....

Right on, I need to get in for another alignment and want to see how much we can max out the camber bolts, so I'll try a little rear toe-in this time. I've also been driving with a crooked steering wheel for a while, but it was WELL WORTH IT for the excellent feel of your Delrin rack bushings. That is now something I'll look to replace on any car I end up with down the road.

at auto-x i don't think you'd feel the toe much, but at high speeds, the ass likes to wander time to time. i've had some very squirly endeavors before i fixed my toe issues, TOE OUT = death

Toe out is really, really, shall we say interesting. Made for a darty car that did not like road surfaces or rough input. I run pretty neutral toe and with just my double yellows it's pretty docile.
