If I remember correctly, front toe is 1/16" out and rear is 1/16" in. fwiw mine is primarily an autox car where cornering grip is everything.

You just have to monitor your tires and the seat of your pants to find your happy dance. I think your original post is a good starting point for your driving habits. My two cents and happy driving to everyone!
I'm guessing you have either way too much spring in the rear or too stiff of a sway bar in the rear or both. If you need -3° in the rear you have something else way out of whack. Our cars have a lot of dynamic camber gain in the rear so therefore a little negative camber goes a long way.
