any place should do an alignment to your specs

i hope you have adjustable arms though... stock arms have almost no adjustability...

It'll be fine, i wanna find a place that will let me sit in it when the align it.

Anfrey told me he has this deal he paid $150 for lifetime alignments, now that's bad ass.

 

[ryanM]

i need an alignment too, i'm going to ask a friend at work if he can do it

i dont have enough caster in front, and that whole 6* negative camber in back isnt working for me.

 

[hkt03]

we unfortunately dont have a place like that in the city.

and the reason i probably wont run tomorrow is cuz i'm broke. spent the money from autox to repair the leak.

FYI:




8. What is the day's schedule?

* A. Plan to arrive between 8:30 and 9 am (9:30 & 10 am Indiana Time).
* Park your car and register, then unload loose items.
* Walk the course until the drivers' meeting at 9:30 (10:30 Indiana Time).
* You will be assigned to one of three run groups, and your schedule will rotate between driving, working (picking up cones), and resting.
* We don't take a lunch break; you can eat during your rest period.
* We usually finish the runs and hand out the awards by 4:00 (5:00 Indiana Time).
* After the awards, there is usually time for "fun runs".
* LATE FEE: In order to provide all competitors with as many autocross runs as possible, we have decided to encourage prompt registration. Registrations after 9:15 am (10:15 Indiana Time) will be assessed a $5.00 surcharge. The drivers' meetings will begin at 9:30 am (10:30 Indiana Time) and, for safety reasons, people who miss the drivers' meetings will not be allowed to register.
