Alignment numbers-what do you run?

Getting another alignment, and I have some numbers on camber and caster I got from this site, and I have my own ideas. But just curious what you guys are currently running for caster, camber, ect. I do not go to the track, but enjoy tight curvey back roads, as this is what I'm going towards with my mods for this car. When I grow some bigger *****, I plan on hitting a road track or two

Try posting this question in the Road Race/Autocross forum.

I don't have the #'s right next to me, but I do remember you want to get as much camber as you can for good tire wear. I have mine at -1.1 degrees and the tires wear evenly on the front.
