Track Alignment in Houston

I HIGHLY recommend Sal's Autosport if you don't already have a shop you trust:
http://salsautosport.com/

He's one of those super detail oriented guys. Somehow we talked about the art of alignment for an hour today while I dropped off and picked up the car. My guess is only a factory race team could have achieved more accuracy, lol!

Played around with the car a little and it feels so much more precise.

Great shop, I've been there a few times in the past with friend's cars that got alignment there.

Satin steel here as well. If you see you're clone, it's probably me.

I haven't tried them yet but a couple friends have. Just something worth noting to those who care:

They want to charge me 3 times the normal price for an alignment. Here's why:

1x - Standard alignment
2x - Track alignment, need the extra hour to dial in custom alignment specs
3x - Add another hour to rotate the front suspension to track setting if not done already


Makes sense to me. Friend says they'll take the time to dial it in, so does ZRacerLE. Another friend said they got it close, but not quite perfect on his.
I'll chime in again when I try them. Just got new tires right when Corona hit, then took off to MIA to ride it out. I'll order new TTY bolts when I'm back & get it aligned.

I almost did the strut rotation myself, but didn't want to drive 50 miles to their shop with toe all screwed up.

... I also did not worry about the TTY bolts this time. Will probably replace every other alignment.
