Most places do a corner balance, then an alignment, and just call it a day. Unfortunately doing an alignment after a corner balance will often send your corner balance off by 1% or more. They showed me this when I was first getting my car setup.

I drive a BMW so I take my car to get setup by people who race BMW's. If you've just got a stock car or don't do any track driving just go to the dealer
Does Lang Racing align by hand or hunter laser? Been having some issues with my car. Had 3 alignments the past year with issues after every one of them. I'm thinking its more a car issue than the aligner.

I think 3 of their race cars are M3's so they are familiar with them and know how to set them up for whatever you might need. I've never gotten so much attention to my specific requests until I started taking the car there. They went so far as to look at my tire temperature records and adjusted the alignment accordingly.
Hmmmmm, you bump a 2.5 year old thread and have 2 total posts...
