Alignment numbers- What are you running?

I am going to get another alignment, and I have some numbers that I got off of this site, along with my own ideas. I was curious what caster/camber, ect you guys are currently running? I do not go to the strip. I like tight curvey back roads, as this is the direction I am taking the mods with this car. When I grow some bigger nuts I plan on hitting a road coarse or two.
Thanks

The generic answer is max negative camber, then max positive caster, and 0 toe. but this varies by car. I am running -1.7º camber, +4.5º caster and 0 toe. This works pretty well on the street and track.

Next time I have it aligned, I am going with 5º caster, and a little toe out. This is for autox, and is not a daily driver.

I agree with what Chuck said. I'd Like to add It's hard to get allot of negative camber on a non-lowered car.

I'm running -.6 Camber, +4.8 caster and 0.0 toe in.
