Question: alignment setting for a daily drive and track car?

[Trish]

I guys,

I need to take my car for an alignement. Wanted to know which specs I should put on my car if I use it as a daily drive and a track car? (90% daily drive, 10% track).

I have a full coilovers kit (BC, type BR), 17" wheels (205-40-17). I do lapping/time attack.

Thank you!

Start with 2-2.5 degrees negative camber in front with zero toe or VERY slight toe-in (maybe 1/16"). Leave the rear alignment stock.

Should be a good compromise for street/track. Autocrossers will use a little toe-out in the front, but my experience has been that the Yaris feels VERY darty with toe out or even zero toe on the street. It needs that tiny hint of toe in for straight line stability. You'll feel more confident on a race track with the same.

this is nearly what i run, i have a tiny bit of toe in the rear. tire wear is great.

but this is probably easier to do :) I wonder how much influence the rear shims i have play on handling. When i did the full alignment, it sure make a huge difference when the car was completely stock.
