The alingment need to suit the power the wheel tyre combo and the driving style. What works for one may not work for another.

negative 2.5 on front camber is lethal on a wet road think about it u have less of the tyre making full face contact with the road, as pointed out above advace pitstop=fail wez=win

yea well mine had a good bit of negative camber(dunno how much,hadnt got it on the road long enough to get laser aligned)but the car never was good at braking.the brakes were perfect but it would always go into a skid something i reckon could be sorted with a good setting up.ive heard only the best of things about jstoneracing.was thinking of getting the car set up there

For road use max 1.25 deg neg camber on the front and 5 deg castor. Towed in 1.5mm

On the rear the camber should be 0.25-0.5 max negative. Towed in 1mm

Wont eat tyres and will have the best all round grip.
