Alignment settings & tires for racing

[jrtoffroad]

Hey guys,

I've been autocrossing my Z recently (details and vid's here: http://www.zr1.net/forum/showthread....592#post111592 ) and am just about ready to pull the trigger on a new set of Nitto NT01's. Any experience with these? I plan to run them in the stock size on my extra rims and use them only for racing. I'd love to know how the hold up, is the grip comparable to other r compound tires, and what pressures work well as a baseline for our cars.

I'd also like to step up to some more aggressive alignment settings. From what I've read I'm thinking:
Front: 1.5-2 deg negative camber, no toe in, and caster at stock specs
Rear: ~1 deg neg camber, 1/16" toe in

Thoughts? I do drive this on the street, and plan to use it for road course work as well as autocross and drag racing. I've read mixed opinions on caster but, from what I understand, to achieve significant negative camber on a C4 I'll likely have to remove all the shims and have no caster adjustment (my car is lowered, not sure if this still holds).

THANKS!
Jordan
