Shameless 24 hour bump for opinions of the alignment sheet!

I'm guessing that the 'before' numbers are actually the numbers right after the suspension components were swapped . . . so we really don't know what the car was running at back when everything was still OE. What I'm getting at is that maybe the basic wear pattern had already set in.

How many miles on the car - what I'm fishing for here is rear shock condition, with softish damping allowing the car to squat more and do so more quickly on a hard launch, followed by the rear of the car bobbing back up just a tad.

Just barely crossed 12K miles. Correct, I believe the "before" numbers are after the suspension parts were installed and it was taken to the alignment shop.

Didn't drive the car much after the alignment before I sent it up for the whipple, which wore the tires bald. My concern was just the wear pattern and if I needed another alignment now.

Thanks for the thoughts, they are appreciated!

I see shocks and stiffer springs in your car's future . . . a video showing how far the rear tires camber (and toe) during squat would be useful here.
