I am looking for a good shop in springfield/joplin area that can give a more agressive setup.

I would call American Alignment over on College off of Kansas.

I have a rx8 sport (daily driver), so im not looking for a full race setup,just something a step or two up from stock.
I have a slight understeer i would like to adjust .
I assume i need to get align with tires &wheels i use for autox,should i also sit in car while it is done?

Yes, do sit in it when you have it aligned. I've done that many times. On a macpherson strut car it can make 1/2 degree camber difference, which you will notice particularly on right-hand turns, because you will not have enough camber. The alignment guys will look at you funny but I've never had one that wasn't OK with it.

People are always looking at Bud funny. On the alignment rack is the only place he notices it. But it could be because of the engine noises he makes while sitting there...
(Sorry, Bud; couldn't resist...)

Those engine noises kind of smell funny too.
