951 Alignment Question
Taking my '88 951 to get an alignment. It will be used as an occasional driving event track car and sunny day street car. Should have it set to factory specs's or is there a better set up? Suggestions?

I agree: at least 1/2 up to 1+ degree negative, esp. at the front will help a lot on the track and won't hurt street tire wear. In fact, you can go to 2 or a bit more on the front but that is borderline for your needs.
Always try to keep as much caster as possible, recognizing that increasing negative camber generally reduces caster (due to the constraints of the adjusters).
Keep the toe at 0 or factory specs; track setup (for trailered cars) is with a bit of toe out but that will destroy tires on the street (ask me how I know...)

In a few weeks i Will look closer to mantheys own gt4. I am not to keen on outing to much euros on My car, summer running out on me. Might of now go For option nr. 1. It would make it slightly better than factory setting anyway i hope.
