If this was a dedicated track car, front toe would definitely be out. But I'm not going that route for three events a year, as it will reduce the life of the street tires even further.

My race car had toe-out in front, and turn-in was indeed quite sharp. I loved it!

I asked the builder why the front toe wasn't 0 instead of being 1/32" in; unfortunately, I don't recall his answer and didn't make a note of it. Off the top of my head, I'm guessing he told me that the static toe-in changes once the car is moving and/or turning, but I'll have to ask him again.
