Alignment: Toed in or out?

So I'm taking the car back in for some alignment work since the last track day and wanted to clarify something; do I toe the rear in or out?

Right now I'm at -2.3 camber, 0 toe front and -1.9 camber, 0.10" toed in at the rear.

I understand I can toe the front out a little for slightly better turn in.

So again, toe in or out the rear?

Toe out or zero at front and toe in at the rear. I am running .02 toe front and .16 degrees toe per side rear. -2.2 front and -1.9 rear camber. To me and everyone I've ever spoke to I'd say you need a little more toe in the rear.

For a street car your rear toe would be fine and give excellent tire wear but on the track a touch more toe in will help on the long sweeper with stability.
