1100+ rwhp alignment....

Hey Guys, I’ve looked on the forum but didn’t really see much for 1000+ hp cars… I picked up a 2010 Camaro a few months ago. Fully built, 408 94mm turbo, 4l80e, strange 60, strange shocks all the way around (as of now 3 are leaking), bmr full drag rear suspension with full 15” conversion in rear. Car is lowered. I do mainly street driving, very little drag strip (maybe 2 times a year I go). Do put on enough street miles but no really too worried about wear on tires bc of street mile. I want the car to hook the best it can when I need it to. This is the alignment that was just done to it b4 I picked her up. He ran through y he had it like this but I can’t remember what he said. I’m thinking now the rear camber is off some? To much - camber? Car has pretty new mickey drag radials on and they are shredding right off (not from burn outs). They are not smooth at all. Lines or ruffled rubber all the way acrossed the tires. And with all the – camber the out sides of the tires are not even being touched. Car seems to drive good as of now. Don’t really pull bad or anything but…..

I've heard about this car in Madison...would love to see it in person! I actually work at a shop in DeForest where we do a ton of alignments. If it were mine, I would set camber as close to 0* as possible with a little tow in(.08* to .15*), caster looks good, more the better with passenger leading slightly. Rear I would set camber to 0* or a little positive to make up for when she squats under boost it make up for suspension geometry. Toe I would set as close to 0* as well. Just my thought...

Automotion this year???

Drag radials will look like that anytime you drive them on the street. no matter how its set up. you can put them on a factory stock car and they will do the same thing.


what color is the car you bought? white?

your question has been answered. Where it is set at is perfectly fine. The drag radials will do that while you drive them on the street. They are a soft compound tire the street tears them up.

Just ignore anyone that flames for street racing, who cares.

Stangkilr or arrons old car?
