You must have not hammered down on the straights/ as that positive toe will keep you from dancing around; they really didn’t dose you much with it...but twice more in rear is normal

Yeah, I haven't done any straight hard pulls yet. But it makes sense. After I installed the rear camber links, I was coming off a fwy interchange/left curve/straight at about 75 mph. The rear end felt a little sktchy... i see that the -.10 toe in the rear left was probably the cause.

The work.... still yet to be determined.. they did the alignment by hand. No machines. Service? Cold. When I called they made it seem like Steve was the only one that could align the z. When I got there, it was Jorge that he asked to do it. Steve never said a word to me after that. Not even a thank$ for coming by... even though he was behind the girl that did my paperwork... John was ok though.

The best place in the area is West End. Check out their Yelp reviews. They do their alignments without machines also. There's a least a month wait time to get into them as they are so sought after.

Great interview with Darin from West End on alignment and driver experience.
