Thanks!

Awesome, hopefully I'll see you out there.

I ran a new best @ Pitt Race, 2:00.63. Last full lap of the day. Car was starting to understeer as the RE71R’s where starting to overheat. I made a few mistakes also. Sub 2:00 is there. Only changes from last September were:
-Rebuilt the ZO6 front calipers and repaint
-New DBA ZO6 rotor rings
-Lubed the chassis mounts of the Z/28 front anti/roll bar in order to soften the bar a touch.
-Installed Vorschlag camber plates.
-Alignment:Took out .2* of front and rear camber to -2.2/-1.1 respectively. With the Vorschlags, I could easily get to -3.0, but it’s a street car first so I’m keeping the alignment conservative. Also reduced the caster to +6.4 from +8.0 ish. Front toe in about .060” (I like the feel of toe in), and I took some toe in out of the rear, now at .055” toe in.

Car is moving away from understeer and felt great.

I ran a new personal best at the Track Night in America on June 19th.
2:00.00. If not for a few mistakes and tires that were going away, I would have been easy 1:59's. No changes except I removed my rear wicker bill, which the car seemed to be a tiny bit more loose, but well within control. I might switch out the OE 1LE rear anti-roll bar (ARB) for the smaller Z/28 rear ARB, I'm having trouble putting the power down coming out of "Coyote Gulch" Turn 6.
Great to hangout with Travis ('17 ZL1), Chez ('17 Challenger R/T) and Chris ('17 ZL1). Rick also was there in his Gen 6 1LE.

There's an event this Friday (June 29th) with tons of track time available.

It's limited to 40 cars (in a couple places it says 30 cars ?). There are a few openings remaining. Some track experience is required. This is an advanced format with passing anywhere (point-by only).

https://www.motorsportreg.com/events...e-compl-520581

You can use discount code SWPPITTDISC2018 for $100 off the registration.

It'd be awesome if a couple more guys from the Camaro community could be in attendance.

I've run with that group several times. It is an awesome event with more seat time than most people will even want. I unfortunately won't be making this event, but I highly recommend it.

New best, 1:57.29
Goodyear SuperCar F1 3R 305/30-19
-3.0 front camber
Z/28 rear ARB replaced the bigger 1LE bar
Far from a perfect lap
Beyond the grip of the Goodyears, I like the feel of them more than the RE71R's.

I thought I'd share one of my PittRace laps with commentary from Dion von Moltke (Pro driver).

I corded the R7s in less than 2 track days. I didn't notice in time to order new tires so I was back to the OE Goodyear F1 Supercar 3s for the weekend. I ran a 1:56.96 which I'm pretty proud of for the tires.

Been a busy summer for me. Haven't had the car out too much this summer (neither the Camaro or the TA). Only made it to the track this 1 time last week. I think I seen a couple of you guys there too.
Ran a new PB. Goal is for sub 2:00:00. Lap after this 1 was 1sec faster going into T16. Red flag came out for a Mustang that crashed and was still on track. Would’ve been close to sub 2 minutes, but I’m happy with my progress. Previous best was 2:04.
