Wheel Alignment setting for drag racing
Wheel Alignment setting for drag racing
I have to get a wheel alignment soon and was wondering if someone request anything different for dragracing. I was thinking having the guy play with the camber alittle so the tire are at neg camber sitting but 0 camber when I am on the gas
Unless you have camber bolts or aftermarket struts that have camber adjustment you can't adjust the camber.

so what about toe in or should I just leave it alone and go with stock spec's
I run stock to-in. Camber bolts are about $40. I got mine here. http://www.ingallseng.com/parts/81260.htm You only need one set which is 0-1 deg. I bought 2 for both upper and lower but now my slicks are wearing on the inside vs the outside so I am taking one set out.
for a FWD car, you want camber at zero when the suspenion is at launch height. i.e. if the front picks up 2" when you take off, then you want to make sure your car is set for zero camber at 2" above normal ride height.
If you're running camber other than zero, you'll only have one edge of the tire contacting the ground at once, and you'll wind up with less traction and more tire wear than if you had zero camber.
I'd say run just a bit of toe-out so that when you stomp on it, the suspension will flex and cause it to go to zero. I'd say no more than 1/8" toe out though.
