Zero rear toe means you weren't taking advantage of anywhere near the grip you could have with some static toe in.

Yes, i understand that. I tend to adjust the camber depending on what tire or tire pressure I use. But right now im still seeing the majority of the tread disappear a little towards the inside of the tire. Id rather have a camber setting that maintains an even tire wear through the whole face of the tread. Maybe if i lowered the tire pressure a bit more during this test, it wouldve been perfect, but the car still being tested with a stock SR20 (condition unknown) so I kept the pressures at a modest 24PSI.
As for toe settings, i would run up to 1/2" toe in on my driftworks geomaster 2 car (used to be used for competition). I wanted to keep things "zero'd" for this test so i would have a better idea of what the gktech kinematics were doing. Also with just about 200whp, i find that too much toe in creates a bit of an awkward flow when driving longer corners. Although i feel anything north of 250whp would greatly benefit from a good amount of toe in, without needing to reduce mechanical grip to keep the car more
predictable/forgiving.
