Drag Alignment Specs?

Drag Alignment Specs?
Does this sound like a good front and rear alignment for setting up the suspension for drag racing?
Front: Very close to zero toe for minimal scrub. Camber 1.2 degrees negative.
rear: Zero toe with my solid bushings all around. Camber +?
So how much + degrees of camber should I run in the rear?
Thanks,
Phil

i would start with 1/2 to 3/4 deg positive, it really depends on how much your rear end will squat, if you could simulate a squat on the wheel alignment machine then you could get to see in real time what it would change from, as irs rear ends do change shitloads, im doing the same for my fc as its got irs, and i am running hks drag coilovers, i havnt had the chance to put it on a machine yet as im still waiting for the units and the car is on blocks

max out the caster in the front, it will keep you going strait in the groove. I run 1 deg positive camber in the rear to compensate for squat, you will have to measure the amount of squat. Or if you know a mechanic get him to do the alignment, then compress the rear ( weight in the hatch, or straps around the sub frame pulling it down onto the rack to get a reading) slicks get elongated on the big end so a little positive isn't as bad as you would think
