Road course friendly cam upgrade?

Hey all, I've been thinking about what perf mods I'd like to do and am leaning towards a ported MSD intake, ported TB, maybe ported heads, definitely full exhaust, stock bottom end. My real head-scratcher is cam choice. I want something that has great street manners and can be road-raced without having to do the sign of the cross for my valve springs before every blast, and no flycutting. Has anyone done a cam swap on a 6th gen that they road race? Any advice? Thanks!

Is there a build thread here on that one? Id be curious to see driver impressions and before /after dyno plots showing how the powerband changed.

If you are on Facebook, check Pray Performance's page, and I believe there is something on a 1LE stage 1 build with dyno charts, who's owner is a road racer. You might need to scan down quite a ways on the page to find it.
