First, you need to understand what the different settings actually do:
Suspension adjustments and how they affect handling

Cars out of the factory will generally have minimal toe and camber because most people spend most of their driving going in a straight line, bumming to and from work or the grocery store or whatever

A track car wants to maximize grip across a variety of circumstances, including turns, during which the tire doesn't want to be straight up and down. Race cars want some level of negative camber. How much depends on a bunch of other settings, such as the tire, the suspension, and the surface

Read the actual track guys talk about it here:
Track Alignment
and here
Mixed use alignment? (Attn:Hotrodz, Rusty)

-3 camber front and -2 camber rear is pretty common, and most people want as much caster as possible up front for dynamic camber gain during compression

toe also is generally minimal. A bit of toe may provide high speed stability
Thanks a lot brother, apprecaited. I got the answers now.
