Zl1 alignment specs with camber plates

So I just picked up my car from the alignment shop and wanted to share the spec sheet to see if anything looks off to anyone. I have full SPL rear and Vorshlag camber plates. It's mostly used on track but sometimes back roads.

For track purposes I run the VORSHLAG Camber plates at FULL negative setting which is around -3.6 degrees on the front. I like you also run -2.2 degrees negative on rear.

Now having said that, I will be running -3.1 degrees FRONT camber and -2.4 degrees REAR camber on Sunday 9/19. I used SPL Toe Arms to get the increased camber because I was maxed out before using the STOCK Toe Arms. I also am running SMALL amounts of TOE in to eliminate PREMATURE tire wear. MY SS 1LE is considerably easier on tires than my ZL1 1LE was, That 250-300 pound difference in weight is the main reason in my opinion.

Something is curious to me about the total toe in front. I thought that the total toe was the addition of the two wheels together which seems to hold for the total toe in the rear. But the front you have 0.01 toe out on both wheels which I think would result in at least 0.02 toe out for total but it is still showing 0.01. Rounding error maybe? Just curious. Looing into doing alignments myself in the garage so trying to learn as much as I can.

Yes I picked up on that also but I have no clue why. I was thinking in learning how to do an alignment myself in the garage but not sure how accurate it would be. It would be interesting to see if anyone does them in there garage and what tools they use.

Yeah, I think it’s about rounding. Maybe results were more like .006 rounded to .01.
Then .012 rounded to .01 total

There is a real good video on youtube from FCP Euro racing team that shows you how to do it with very little investment, thinking or trying it.


Here is the link:

I seen that video before but my issue is how critical does the car need to be level and how accurate is it. Also looks like a pain in the ass to adjust like that. To me it would be better if the car was raised to have enough room to adjust so you don't have to measure again.
