Spec Miata alignment
What are some alignment specs that are common on a race prepped Miata that's running R-compounds?

I'm ---- (you didn't capitalize the thread title for instance).
There are people who are actually diagnosed with OCD. There are really really bad cases of OCD. Then there's this setup guide: http://www.specmiata.com/download/sm_setup_guide_v2.pdf |
I have pretty much based my alignment specs off of this:

Miatas between 13 - 12" front ride height
Front camber: -2* (or as close as you can get to it) Caster: +3.75 to +4.25* Front total toe: 0 Rear camber : -1.8* Front total toe: 0 Miatas below 12.0" Front camber: -2.8* (or as close as you can get to it) Caster: +2.75 to +3.5* Front total toe: 0 Rear camber : -2.5* Front total toe: 0 Miatas over 180whp or so can add +1/16" total toe in at the rear to attenuate corner exit power oversteer. 949Racing alignment specs - MX-5 Miata Forum |

To give you an idea though, for Northern California its usually about 3.5* front camber, 3* rear. Front toe 1/16" out, rear goes between 1/16" in and 0 depending on the track. |

It depends on the track and the tire you are running (888 vs ra1), to be honest.

They're supposedly a bit faster than the RA-1, but they don't last long at all, SM is ditching the R888s to go back to RA-1.

888's use less camber then ra-1's.
|
0 toe all the way around, in SSM we are limited to -2.5 in the front and -2.0 in the rear, and I am right on the number there. Car is scaled and cross weighted to 50.0% +/- 1% with 2 gallons of fuel to put me at class minimum, which gives a nice neutral car that is a little tight as the fuel load lightens at the end of a 18 lap sprint race.
