Max Camber on a non 1LE?

If my shoulder isn't completely toast(long story) I hope to be at VIR at the end of May(Memorial day) for the 3 day PCA event.

The HP Supp says to run -2.0 camber in the front, but what is the max a non 1LE ZL1 can achieve? I'm hoping it will get to at least -2.25 as any more than that and the car may not drive well on the highway at least from my past experience from other cars.

I have a 17 Zl1 Vert and get -2.3 camber in fronts. 3/16 -1/4 clearance between wheels and struts. Toe will also have to be adjusted when changing camber. At -2.3 on highway at 70mph it doesn’t ride bad. Steering feels a little more responsive to steering input. Don’t know about highway tire wear at -2.3 cause I only drive 20miles to track at this setting. Hope this helps.

Yeah that’s great. Yes I’m aware of the toe change, will have the whole car aligned.

Max on my ZL1 was -2.3° front but it didn't feel right. I backed it off to -2.0° and it feels much better. I may be at the same event at VIR.

Good feedback, thanks guess I’ll stick with the factory recommendation for the maiden voyage. I’ll let you know by the end of the week if I’m 100% going. Will depend on on my shoulder MRI and Ortho follow up.
