Nice thing about 944s- An aggresive autocross alignment doesn't affect tire wear on the street like it does on a 911. (A 911 will wear rear tires quickly)

The factory specs assume a fully-loaded car, and induce a bit of understeer, as that is considered safer for "average" drivers.

The car should be more fun to drive in any situation, unless you are carrying a load of bricks under the hatch.

The only downside is that there will be less on-center steering stability- If you are on poor pavement, the fronts will want to follow the road contour instead of plowing straight ahead. This is the flip side of the quicker steering response.

I much prefer driving a 944 on the street with a competition alignment over the factory settings.
