its not really how many laps you can do, but they give you like 20-30 mins per session, so as many laps as you can do during that time.

Factory alignments usually give you a bit of toe in and camber will be +- 0.5* in the front and IIRC, the rear isn't adjustable without getting aftermarket camber bolts.

If you can dial in -1.5* of camber in the front, that will really improve front end grip and as long as toe is still set to 0 or just a smidge of toe in, tire wear will still be good.

If you feel like getting more aggressive you get dial in another half a degree or two.

For the rear, if you get some adjustable bolts, -1.0* of camber is a good starting point depending on how the car feels how.

You'll want to get camber within +-0.1* if possible.

How did it handle? Did it push? Did the rear get loose at all? What tire pressures did you run?

Awesome, does TRD make a front bar, too?

Im running -3 front -1.2 rear. 10kg front 12kg rear springs. You want handling... That's the setup. Understeer is nonexistant.

I totally agree with your setup for a super-aggressive setup where you do a lot of racing, but you will get some extra wear on the inside of the fronts with that much neg camber if the car is a daily driver and you aren't constantly slinging the car around corners.

My alignment suggestions are more for the daily driver who occasionally gets a bit aggressive in the corners. Yes, a good setup for amateurs since that's what 99% of us are.

it handled pretty well thru the corners with just slight understeer but was controllable... the rear didnt really get loose, and my tire pressure was around 33-34 before running on the track....then it shot up to around 38-39 when hot/running on the track
