on the rear depending on how fast the car will turn (wheelbase affects this) then you can change the turn in and straight line stability.
If it turns fast and wants to spin round, then add more negative rear toe.
The rear toe will affect stability under acceleration even more if you have rubber bushings in the rear suspension anywhere.
I haven't got the 6 degree beam on the rear yet and only looked at the camber and I agree there is way too much on there, the rear toe SHOULD be as per standard cossie but then also so should the camber. The rear beam is pro flexed at the moment but will be the MK 6 deg beam (when he delivers It).

I will see if I can measure the rear toe and if I can't I will get it on my friends laser hunter system to see but will all be properly done when the 6 deg is on there.

The Mike Rainbird settings for 6 deg look to be more neg on the rear than you have suggested.

I THINK I read somewhere that Marks MK beam allows for some castor adjustment on the rear too but I could be wrong.
