Your friends are right. For your application, you need as much caster as you can get in it, but it won't be much with stock a-arms. With the Detroit speed pieces I have in my Nova (same front subframe as yours), I have 5-1/2 degrees of caster. More caster will make it harder to parallel park (you probably don't care about that...I don't...L-O-L), but it will be very stable at the big end of the track -- the car will want to steer straight ahead.
For a drag car, I'd try to keep the camber closer to zero (wheels straight up and down). Again, not easy to accomplish, especially with the camber change than occurs in these cars as the wheels go through their travel.
Toe should also be as close to zero as you can get it in a drag car...
Hope that helps.
