The Beater Racing 50 second (rental car) 3rd gen fbody alignment:
*loosen all three bolts on the drivers strut brace
*kick or knock back and in
*retighten
*repeat on passenger side
Done.
Your toe-in that you probably had now magically turns to zero or 1/16 out
(perfect for autox)
You maximized the negative camber (by knocking in toward motor) and
positive camber (by knocking rearward, toward firewall)
You are done, enjoy the better handling and better tire wear
