I'm gonna have to go get that deal too... assuming they'll do alignments out of spec... I want to show up: "Yeah, I need -3.5 degrees of camber in the front." "But -1 is the max in the book." "Just do it or you can pay for new race tires when the shoulders are worn to hell."

Muahahhaha.
The Firestone I used to go to in the south bay would do whatever specs I told them, you just gotta make sure to tell them every single number you want before they start. I stood around in the bay and watched them do it just to make sure... the techs doing it oohed-and ahhhed over the car when they actually got to see something interesting like caster/camber plates, brake ducting, etc.. instead of another soccer mom's SUV.
