Toe in or toe out?? For Taildraggers

The toe-in, seems to me, would be counterproductive anyway,
since the inside wheel in a groundloop has little or no weight on it,
and the outside wheel will have more say as to where the nose is going.
I'd align the wheels straight as best as I can, and tolerate a tiny bit
of toe-out, if anything.

that is exactly what it is all about.
the wheel with the weight on it not contributing to the groundlooping
tendency. the other wheel has so little influence because it has no
weight on it that it can point anywhere.
the wheels need toe out.
