Do you have the specs of what the car was actually alligned to? Again, I had the same setup, it doesn't compare to the Griggs setup I have now, but there was not any problem at all aligning it to stock specs or Steeda specs or what I eventually found worked a bit better.

BTW, if you are wearing the inside edge then you have either too much negative camber or are on the toe out side (you want a bit of toe in). Neither is good for drag racing.

The caster statement doesn't make much sense either. There is a lot of adjustment available for caster. You want the most equal caster you can get. If one side can get 4 degrees and the other 3, then you set both to 3. There is no reason for the caster to be "a bit off" no matter what, the whole point is to align it so that aren't a bit off.

What kind of shop is this? If its just a regular alignment/general maintance sort of place then they are probably good enough for stock spec +- alignments, but they tend to be very hit or miss on rather or not they can do more precision or nonstock spec work.

The Steeda CC plates are the FRPP plates. They won't work for coil overs but other then that there isn't anything wrong with them.

EDIT: If you didn't this time, ask for a print out of the alignment every time.
