Both Pedders and Pfadt representatives have posted alignment specs for various purposes in the "Suspension" section. Start by searching on "Pedders alignment", I think that's what I used the last time I wanted to track some of them down.

Were you running with the Hot-Laps-Instructed group in their sessions?


Norm

[hookdup]

Norm,
Yes, but was in Un-Instructed Hot Laps group. Lapped most in the group.
I had choice of red or White, and since was first day of year on Lightning, I
wanted to not impede anyone. But never switched, as I already had a schedule in my head.
Will be upping the alignment for NASA NE next weekend.
Times will be posted,
Be safe.

I know I saw a white Camaro there but never got the chance to stop by and say Hi, and anybody 5 or 6 seconds faster than me in my sessions would have got a point-by at some point. I did get to speak with Chris (yellow 1LE), and he's a member here as well.

Email sent.

If you read this thread it has both the PFAT and Pedders alignment recommendations.

Sounds like you are smoking it. More camber helps.

For sure. At that pace (about 87 mph average speed), even -2° isn't quite enough.

NJMP Thunderbolt (No Chicane)
with NASA NE, HPDE2
Achieved the goal!!!!!!!
1:39 (Broke into the 1:3's)
I did loosen the strut bolts and kick as much camber as possible, still minimal.
And changed to Carbotech xp10/xp8.
Definitely reco'd for bone stock cars.
Once bedded, amazing, I did order the pads "pre-bedded" but still needed a sesion to get to match the rotors.
On a side note< I did run my replacement car, 98' TransAm, (AIX/ITE now HPDE car)
for one session, and disintegrated the transmission.
After a handful of HPDE days, I realized, buy something to toy with, and preserve the 1LE.
BUT...
Crazy people like me will continue bring 2 cars to a track day, just in case one breaks.
Yeah, sounds overkill, could I be the first to bring 2 cars to a HPDE Event?????
Be safe everyone1
