Can anyone please give me some clarification as to what tracking and camber set up is recommended for the front of a Nova rally car competing in tarmac events?

I've read a couple of guides on here, one recommending 2mm toe out as per the works nova rally cars and another recommending 1 to 2mm toe in!!!

1.5 degrees negative camber seems like the general consensus and unfortunately I can't adjust the caster yet with my current set up.

Thanks

I understood it toe in for 4/rwd and toe out for fwd. Personally I would start with the works cars setting as a basis and maybe alter to suit your driving style a bit.

That is pretty much what I thought, it was Colin Smith (Novarally) who had posted recommending toe out as per the works cars so I thought he would be a good source for a good setup.

2mm toe'd out. 1.5 neg camber. As much castor as you can get.
Also check that you rear beam is straight or a slight toe in.
