Check your oil pan to see if there is any oil residue or dirt stuck onto the sides and/or bottom. I have had 2 separate oil pan bolts become slightly lose (felt about finger tight when I put a socket on them, one on each side) which caused a bit of oil seepage at different times about a year apart requiring me to add over half of a quart of oil each time after tightening them back up which stopped the oil consumption both times.
Maybe it was caused by the vibrations from using curbs on tracks but it does not seem to be a common issue with the 6th gen Camaro. https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=567130 |

I think mine is basically the same as yours. It hasn't been to Sebring, but it definitely uses a lot of 0W40 oil in a day of hard pulls.

At Sebring you are to the floor, most of the time. I had over half a tank of gas, and almost ran out of gas, in a 25min run Car seems fine, runs perfect So I’ll ck oil before I start it, when I return to Florida |

Just had my first track day at CMP with 2000 miles on the odo. Didn't consume any oil prior to this. Three, 20 min sessions with 5 WOT sections to 100+mph. Used 1/3 quart of oil. Is that good?

2nd vote for this. My oil pan bolts were working loose after about 2 years. Tightened them and haven't had any seepage since. As for oil consumption, as of 40K miles and LOTS of track days, I burn 0 during an event. I've never added more than 1/4 qt between oil changes. OP - that much consumption during ONE event is concerning. Modern engines just don't burn oil. If they do, something is wrong. I'd find a shop (or DIY) to perform a compression check.

Some don't always tell the truth, bench racing
If your going the 24th, might see you if I don't have a conflict. |

PB is a 2:28 on OEM tires. I'll be there with NASA on 4/17-18 to see if I can shave a few more tenths...
