I agreed that GM went to that extreme to reduce the heavy understeer of the C8. The Camaro's Alpha Alpha platform is a more well balanced chassis that doesn't need to go to the extremes on alignment tunning. Is ready to play on the track without wearing your tires on DD.

I'm sure the moment they add a wider wheels/tires with a GrandSport version it will change dramatically as it did in the C7 example (see above). I wouldn't be surprised, if with better suspension and tire choice C8 GS surpassed the C7 Z06's track performance. Performance margins are very tight, say on a track like Laguna Seca, ~1 sec plus or minus IMO
