Below is the alignment sheet. Top is how it came from factory - WARNING check yours. Mine was all over the place. Botton is what the tech got to.

I gave him the alignment targets - he loaded on his computer the closest he could get from his vehicle list (ZL1 1LE - disregard that)

Question - how bad will it be tracking with just ˜-1.1/-1.4 front camber? Anyone knows where can I take it in Fairfield County, CT to get a proper alignment?

Thanks.
I dont' think he even tried to adjust camber on the front axle, all he did was adjust toe.

The only camber adjustment on the front axle is via the upper bolt on the lower strut mount. It is a slotted/elongated hole from the factory. Loosen both the upper and lower bolts on the lower strut mount, and push in the top of the tire... voila-2+ degrees.

If you drive anywere close to an advanced/instructor pace, you'll destroy your front tires in a weekened w/ that current spec camber.
