I know that the factory car's stasis and chassis settings at the time of delivery more than likely differed from the settings and adjustments made to the ZL1 1LE that achieved the record setting Nürburgring Lap.

Can you please enlighten your fellow ZL1 1LE Enthusiasts, Drivers and Mechanics on what final adjustments and setting were made to the car to achieve the Nürburgring Lap.

Thank you for taking time to help in the pursuit of performance.

Pinhead, good luck....

If I recall, all track settings for various tracks were to be supplied for the ZL1-1LE...It was part of the hype when it debuted at that Nascar event, I believe...been searching a little, but can't find it...

ZL1=1LE owners were to be given all the track settings for each track they had tested the car on, including the 'Ring and Milford and others. It was to be like a supplement to the owner's manual, or something similar...good luck.

I remember it as being promised to the buyers for tracking and not supposed to be a big secret that needed special requests...

Anyway, good luck again...

I'd prefer to see an answer to the M6 Launch problem to be honest.

Ideal settings for a GM guy may not have been good for you anyways. You're best off to adjust, tune, and find out for yourself. Chances are out of the box it's already way above the capabilities of most owners and messing with it won't help.

Thanks, I'll need more support, (the votes still is about 25 votes behind). Maybe I can call ACORN for some last minute voter assistance

+1 But as with any "Good Race Team" they ALWAYS have a few tricks under their Hat.

Thanks Urban

We have an opportunity not many have.

To have the Camaro Engineering Team give out their "Secret Sauce," tips and tunes is Huge.

Voting ends tonight at Midnight.

Thanks to everyone who voted

No doubt. I have some questions for a later time. For example will the A10 make an appearance in the ZL1 1LE along with CCBS. I'll save those.

Should ask why the Z06 has dry sump but ZL1 1LE doesnt.

Yep and why we can't order "OnStar DELETE" like the police and public safety GM orders are allowed.

I don't need OnStar telling me "Turn Left 500ft"...Turn Left 100ft"...TURN TURN TURN when I'm on the Track @ 150mp.

Or if I kiss the wall on the track or blow a tire, OnStar will ask, "Is anyone hurt? Where you in an accident???....

I would even go further and have a 'Bare Bones" interior, no nav, no disco lights etc. There's probably 250lbs of junk on the ZL1 1LE that slows the car down.

I didn't see the OnStar option for the 2018 GT4R....
