    Cheers dude, i was told and i thought was right, that you have a lil toe in, so that when you power on and it moves it straightens out.. Rather than a straight setting that will then point out (toe out) when you power on...

    Sure it was you and fly talking about it with Jon....

    sorry mate but its the other way round on FWD, what you have is correct for RWD as when you gun it the torque will force the wheels to toe out a little as it pushes the car forward, whereas in a FWD when the tyres grip and drag the car forward the same torque pulls the wheels in, so you need to start with toe out
    what actual settings did you go for?

    I thought toe in was good for straight line stability and 'safeness' whereas a bit of toe out helps cornering/turn in.

    Oh bugger, well its only a tiny bit. Both fronts are 0.6- right in right on the end of the "safe" zone on there setting. So as its still in the ok i guess it should be ok. But next time i'm there i'll get it set the other.
