Default IRS Setup for racing/Rear competition pads for Lincoln/Tbird standard calipers?

I am interested in basic setup of IRS for fast road and circuit racing, I realise most cars have different length rear arms etc and vary, but from some experience I think I used up to 1/4" toe in on the rear, to make the car turn in better on the turns, but having said that it is trial and error?

Also does anyone require the need for better pad material for hard use in the standard Lincoln or Thunderbird calipers, and if so have you the part # for Wilwood or other makes of pad?
I am using Wilwood 12.4" circuit use rotors with Billet calipers on the front, with a road/race pad to start with, as my car is going to be SB, I am hoping they will be sufficient!

Check out this site http://eaglewoman.simracing.dk/cobra/index.htm

Alison and Nate run their FFR very hard, and it is very fast, especially for a car with a bone stock 302. They have done a tremendous amount of chassis development work on it, and it shows. And they definately don't spend a pile of money on it. It's been enlightening to watch them re-work the car over the last few years.
