Default Alignments?

I need to get some specs for next year, the car will be used for road racing and HPDE on hoosiers R6's. IT'S A C5 ZO6 race car. What alignments are people running for track days or autox that are strictly for competition. Looking for toe, caster, and camber settings up front and toe and camber settings in the back.

You may want to check out Corvette forum for a detailed question like that. If you had an fbody, I'd say check out FFRAX, and even at that you may want to check FFRAX anyway. Tech is slanted towards drag racing and street rolls.

You can look at other race corvettes like the C6 or C5 GT3 setups. but what I would do is, put an basis camber setup, then read the tires after the first race day. Bring a infrared thermometer and measure outside, center and inside of the tire and camber accordingly. Be sure to mark each of the tires LF, LR, RR, RF and put those tires only on the corners written down on each track event.
