Be sure they don't get crazy with the settings. In some cases a "autocross" setup implies you fudge up the standard alignment for faster steering and decreased roll in the rear. Do not let them go outside of .5 degrees (either direction) in the front and .3 degrees toe-in rear. You will kill your tires and most likely it will not benefit this car much.

As little camber in the rear, increase camber in the front.

You need a little more toe in. When your toe setting gets close to zero. The car will fell nervous. The faster you go, the worse it gets.
