Thanks Insite. I appreciate the feedback.

At my last autocross I think I was running too low in the front - about 24.5" from the ground to the fender, measuring through the center of the wheel. I've raised it up about an inch now.

Your toe settings seem to be pretty typical for our cars and that's how I'm running. I was at -2.5 degrees of camber in the front though and -3.0 in the back. I couldn't stand the noise from the camber plates though, so I've pulled those and will align the car closer to what you have, -1.5 in the front and -2.0 to -2.2 in the rear.

I'll try running higher tire pressures next time as I was quite a bit lower - 32 psi front and 34 psi rear.
