Because LED lights cost a kings ransom to replace.

For me:
Factory toe (0 front, 2mm in rear each side)
Factory caster
Factory height
-1.5 camber all 4 corners
front bar middle
rear bar middle
Max aero settings

About 25 track days and 10,000 miles.
Made no change.

I may fine tune sway bars and add some rear camber for Sebring once the car comes home.
Its that good out of the box.

I have clear bra on the front half of the car. I've had clearplex on the windshield and still got a cracked windshield.

Same thing happened to me as well! Person in front of me went off just slightly and threw up a rock. Clearplex did nothing. Wasn’t even a big rock. Easier to just get the windshield replaced with insurance.

Even with more front camber the rears wear out two to one front set.
So might as well use up the edges and keep a nicer, less nervous steering feel.

Dunlops need a bit more camber then MPSC2.
For sure stick between - 1.5 and 2.5 max.

Martin, just run 1/3 tank, each session refill- More than battery weight savings. Or you can just fast and purge before track day- same.

Just saved you expensive kaboom and expensive battery for same performance- you can Venmo me the savings.

I wear the outside of my tires way worse than that. I need at least 2.5. I have MPSC2.

I also put the RSS adjustable caster pucks on to keep the caster more close to stock as you change the camber and toe. This also avoids fender liner rub.

What's the name of that black rubber looking stuff that you can spray on and then peal off later (I remember someone mentioned it on here a few years ago)?
