lets talk alignments...
What alignment #'s are you guys running for fast street / light track use? Car ('97 986 sport) feels like it could use a fair bit more camber up front (from stock) to cure the push and less toe f&r to help w/ tire wear (starting to notice some cupping up front).
I'm hoping to get the car on the alignment rack at some point this week to see where it is now. Haven't picked up a shop manual yet so I'd appreciate hearing from some of you to get an idea of where to start experimenting.
Thanks!

Not sure about Boxsters specifically, but my 996 has negative ONE degree camber in front and negative TWO degrees in rear. Stock suspension, tweaked. To reduce the inherent understeer I replaced the stock 7.5 inch width front wheels with 8.5 inch rims, stock tire size. This was needed because I up'ed the rear tire size from 265 to 285. Good Luck.
