It'll serve as a daily driver as well, and I'm not much of a wrencher, so need a dual purpose setup anyways.
My interests are safety and durability. The car still far exceeds my driving skill, so I have very little interest over investing in upgrades. I get my kicks by spending money for track time, rather than blingy parts.
FWIW - will be driving in Northern California tracks: Thunderhill, Sonoma, Laguna Seca.
I guess the question is - does it have some range of adjustability, so that it's worth requesting a performance alignment? If not, then I guess I need to go with factory spec.

I have about the same experience as you. I think if you are staying stock zero toe on the front give much better steering input and turn in than the stock setting. For the rear you can add some camber -1.8 is about what everyone says is the sweet spot. I added the SPL upper control arms and dialed in -2.5 camber up front and it is night and day the traction difference from the stock camber.
Just my .02
