Proper drag alignment?

I'm m sure this has been asked before I'm guessing you would want everything as close to 0 as possible maybe toed in a hair.....? I will be running slicks and skinnies. Just wondering if a regular alignment shop can do this with factory suspension or will special tools and parts be required to do it?

Thanks

Depending on power level put around 350 lbs in rear end to resemble launching and set to zero

Ok that sounds like a easy way to do it. Will any alignment shop be able to adjust it on the rear with factory suspension?

I run 1/8 toe in on rear and as close to zero on everything else on the rear. And zero on everything on the front since you're on skinnys. If it were regular radials I'd say 2 degrees of camber to get some tire of the ground.

Any alignment shop can do it. Tireman does mine and I get a spec sheet when they're finished
