A toe out setting will let your car "turn in" quicker, great for autocross where speeds are down and straight line stability is not your main focus.
A toe in setting is the opposite, with a slower "turn in", but will yield greater straight line stability, with a little less road undulation influence on the overall steering balance, and better high speed confidence. My car is street only, and I run the following, Toe in = .05 degrees in front, .06 in the rear. Camber = 2.0 degrees camber on all 4 corners. Caster = front 5.3 degrees, rear 5 degrees. Ride height = 1-1/4" below Euro spec height with a front to rear rack angle of 1.5 degrees. I posted earlier in this thread, about my bump steer set up. For what this might be worth to anyone???

Thanks for the info guys, I also posted the question in the autocross and race section and got a response so far. I guess that I will do more driving this week-end and assess if I have bump steer or not and see how much lower than euro height I actually am (by measuring it properly). I might just wait until I am ready to have my spindle raised and then get the proper bump steer kit, I am not sure...
Keep the comments coming though! Thanks David

I finally decided to go ahead and try the alignment with these specs and the current height without bump steer kit to see how it goes. The car is being aligned and corner balanced Tuesday but I won't get to try on the track this year, I was just informed that I will be deployed on a ship starting early June and will be gone for 290 days this year... No DE for me as the only time I will have at home will be spent with my kids (3 yo, 1.5 yo and one to be born end June...) That's going to be hard not to see them...
So the car with all the nice stuff will put on wooded blocks for the year... Thanks for the help!
