Need alignment and other specs I'm taking the car to the local alignment/ performance shop tomorrow, and I need some specs to tell them. The car rides on big n' little 90% of the time, and the rest of the time its on 17" ZR1 rims. I have the QA1 adjustable shocks all around with the coil overs up front. I dropped the front and rear about 1.5" or so, and I'm pretty satisfied with the ride height. I might go up or down maybe 1/2", but nothing major. This is primarily a street car that sees a few track visits a year. I need to set my pinion angle, which I think needs to be about -2 degrees, and have my front end aligned. I'm also going to have them check to make sure everything is square ar far as my adjustable LCA's and panhard rod. I also have a random tech adjustable TA. My rear ride height is staying for now, but might have to go back up a little if the car won't hook on these springs. I'd say the most the rear will move is 1" in either direction. I liked the factory springs but they sat too high.
I need some specs for the front end alignment and opinions on the pinion angle. Plus any other info that might be useful. Thanks!

street and strip setups are completly different. a strip setup you want set as nutrual as possible, and a street or autocross car is the other end of the spectrum, if you set up a street car and drag it you could vear to one side, if you do a drag setup on the street it wont handle as well.
once you have your mind made up of which way to go.........
tell the tech making the adjustments for drag set camber as close to 0 as possible and for a street setup they will have the specs stored in the alignment machine, and if they dont the machine is too old and i would not trust its calibration.
good luck
