Default drag race alignment help

This is what i found on a search.Car is a 93 running qa1s, 15 in wheels, fronts skinnys 26x7.50

//Caster: +4.5* (aim for up to +5*)
Camber: -.7* (aim for up to -1*)
Toe: 0
Thats the closest I could get on my car. Every car is different though. If you want to improve straight line tracking, go with some TOE-IN (1/32).\\\\

Do another search. I found Madman's specs. I believe they are 0 camber...all the caster you can get...0 toe though out the range of suspension travel. Just search "alignment" in Drag racing Tech.

Just make sure the car can't get to a toe-out state, especially with the front suspension compressed, this will make the car very darty when you get on the brakes at the big end, which is a disaster waiting to happen.
