Finally found the printout so I thought i'd post it up on here. It feels alot better and definitely handles better.

Bevan, figures are good.
Front camber is set to suit your aggressive style of driving and will work well on track day.
Caster is huge. I didn't think an NB with that camber could achieve a caster setting that high. Most are about 1.5 degrees lower. You may find that you loose a little "feel" through the wheel, though is will centre quickly.
Front and rear toe-in is a good set up for the road.
I think they have done an excellent job for you.

Thanks for the reply Phil. Yeah it does feel alot better on the road. Yeah I just told him maximum caster whilst keeping camber between 1.2 and 1.5. Couldn't beleive that much was acheived.
Only downside is that I was sitting in the shop for 2 hours . Customer service from Mark wasn't his greatest strength. He said about 45min to an hour, which is fine, so I went down to Henry Street and visited Geoffro's shop and a couple of others. One hour turned into two without anyone telling me. The little Pakistani bloke that did the actual alignment was a good bloke though.
I wouldn't have minded two hours if he said that as soon as I walked in. I could have gone to Bigdog's (only 15min away) and come back. I just didn't like being bullsh**ed. Happy with the alignment though!
