The idea of having fixed parameters like seq gearbox, 350bhp etc. is so that when people post up their lap times you know their configuration and setup.
Correct. I thought the sheet will be only for your memory.

A couple things is missing, weather - ambient temp, sports radiator, wing settings.
If there are too many parameters, you lose the overview.

Toe out on the front, because I can't imagine you would want more toe in - this will give you more under steer. This is my first Atom so I could be wrong here for the Atom specifically, but normally you want (if anything) on the front, toe out, it should give you more steering but make it harder to drive.
Really or did you just hear that??
Now your first Ariel? And forum member since 2016
Or your first Atom 4?

Ariel will be increasing the front camber on my car, I think they tend to tweak the camber more than anything
The Ariel factory make a good job.
Maybe it might be a good idea to do your own research to understand the vehicle geometry.

I may get those adjustable wishbones at some point to make it easier to do this.
Let your money in your pocket at the moment. You can buy them in few years when you need the short steps in setting.

The front feels too docile and not pointy enough, adding toe in will make it horrible in my view.
I don't nothing about the new AA4 but for my AA3 your comment is not true.

To me it's a huge learning curve as it is my first Atom and this is all part of the fun for me! see if I can master it
I had bought my AA3 in 2016 and now I am fittling since 2 years about my car setup, because the car conditions were terrible, difficult to drive.
Nobody can help me here in Germany about my Atom. Really nobody because "normal" Racing car are not be comparable.
So learning by changing one parameter only - test drive - changing again ...
And so one.
Now my Atom setup is perfect for me.
I have never been as fast as now.
