Yes, that is what is called Toe-in and you use a bit of toe out on your front wheels. this increses stability at higher speeds, and helps out steering. I don't know the science behind it, but I'm sure one of the local experts can explain in detail.
 
yes it is normal, and should be adjustable. I would need to look up the manual or see some more pics to tell u how to adjust it, but if that is how it was stock I would leave it like that because once they are out of alignment without the right tools its a pain to set them just right again.
 
I just checked your manual and a few other places, the rear toe is not adjustable stock on the hsp sonic. The info I found says its stock at 4deg.
 
well that bar i circled was never out like that when i first ran it , so iv pushed it back in
 
Some rigs have 4 wheel adjustable toe and camber. Others have the rears fixed at a toe in for better tracking. The front should NOT be toed in but instead should be set at zero or 1 degree out for steering control.
 
that bar i circled in the photo above has come out again twice :( ( just in one run ) , need to figure out how to fix the issue ( on another note , the nz kids down the street were amazed by the car ) :)
 
check for wear on the plastic. once it comes out one and rips the plastic it might come out again easy. might need new A-arms
