A lower center of gravity is very important when tracking (plus it looks good). GM can not choose to use optimum ride height as many drivers wouldn't be capable of carefully driving a low car on a regular basis. They would hit stuff, and head right to the dealer for warranty work and such. There are companies making lowering springs for the MRC on the Corvette and V Series Caddy's, so it is only a matter of time before they are out for the Camaro. A 1"-1.25" drop would be perfect...
