I see you're Michigan! Do you have a Gingerman Lap time?
Yes, I have 1 day there with the Camaro, and the best lap time so far is 1:42.5. Also 1 day at Grattan so far with 1:27.3 best lap. How about you?

This! If anything you should measure the depth of the tread depth holes and compare with the inside of the tire.

Nice work, and well done! The Lap Time board shows a few members here running in high 1:38s and 1:39s there.

I will get there, that was my first ever Camaro track day, so I was amused with how playful the car is and how easy it is to slide. But arguable sideways is not the fastest way around.

Do you have a Grattan lap? I'd love to see your line there.

My Grattan lap sucks. Lol... I ran it without the camber I have now. It's since been repaved too!

I was going to agree with this but there does seem to be a big difference between the middle and inside tread depth from looking at the two wear bars in the picture.

I have been seeing a bit more wear in the middle of my rear tires than on both edges so I dropped my rear street pressures to around 29psi cold instead of 32 but I am still seeing the same thing. I have always corded the fronts first so far so the slightly uneven rear wear wasn't an issue. My track alignment with front strut mod is: camber: -2.8° front, -1.4° rear, toe: 0° front, +0.05° rear per side [+0.10° total rear toe].

Yes measure the tread depth holes near the outside if you haven't already.

Survey says...

Alignment shop gave me an extra 0.5 on all 4 corners. Well see how it wears.

F - 3.4
R - 2.6
