I had Tetanus set up with 3 degrees negative camber, 2 degrees positive
caster, and zero toe.  That was on radial autocross tires.  I could have set
the toe out a little, but the worn out front suspension made it toe out
during driving.  I changed the camber to negative 1.5 and caster at positive
1.5 for the bias ply slicks I'm running now.

I would suggest 1 to 1.5 degrees negative camber, 1.5 degrees positive
caster, and 1/8" toe in for a street car with radial tires.  This will give
fairly good steady state cornering, good straight line stability, and nice
turn-in response.
