1" = 2.1001 deg in toe-in alignment jargon. Why? Who
knows. This isn't true for castor/camber though.
1/8" total = ~0.26 deg = ~0.125 deg/side =
~1/16"/side.
If it were set at 1/8"/side, you would scrub the
outside edge of the tires off pretty quick, it would
'hunt' in a straight line, but sure would have a
quick turn-in! :^)) This is a typical Champ/F1 car's
spec, though they run much more negative camber, so
the tire scrubbing/'hunting' isn't much of an issue.
I was originally told 1/8", but the alignment techs
around here I know all have their machines set for
degrees because that's what many manufacturers use
nowadays (or so I've been told), so I converted it.
BTW, you still doing the crotch rocket thingie?
