The last few days I’ve been researching street/track alignment set-ups - I’m staggered with Project 6GR/Sevens 285/35/19 & 305/35/19 MPSS & was fortunate to pick up a new set recently in stock. Next week I have a block of time with one of the newer Hunter alignment racks & a couple sharp techs. I’d like to dial-in more than just factory “green” settings. Does anyone have a recommended alignment for the staggered set-up above-should also mention this isn’t a drag set-up. Any info appreciated!

Do you want a more street-friendly alignment, a more track-friendly alignment, or a 100% track alignment that will get driven on the street occasionally?

Street: I would just follow Ford recommendation and add some more front camber

Hybrid: Front camber: -2.5 | Rear camber: -1.5 | Front toe: 0 | Rear toe: can follow factory (I think it's .12 toe in per side)

Track: Front camber: -3.5 | Rear camber: -2.0 | Front toe: 0 or slightly out | Rear toe: same as above.

If this is to be a more track-focused car, I would strongly recommend you ditch the staggered setup and get 11" wide wheels front and rear.

First reply is spot on. Personally I prefer a touch of toe-in up front on dual purpose cars, essentially as little as the alignment rack will register. Usually that's .05 in per side.
