Alignment suggestions

I'm going to a pretty tight road course with slight elevation changes and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on aligments. I have tein HE coilovers with pillowball upper mounts, and individual rear camber adjusters. I do have full access to an alignment rack so any suggestions would be helpful. I was mainly interested in how much camber to run front and rear.

Max camber up front, 1.5* rear. If its a tight course you might want to run 0 toe or even a little toe out. Leave caster at OEM specs (4.5* or so). You will still want to fine tune the settings with by monitoring tire temps after the tires are heated up to your driving style/preference and since different tires require different settings (tread and sidewall distortion characteristics).

Remember to even out your tire pressures and ride height before doing the alignment.
