Seems higher when it happens on mine.. but it is terrible. I rode in one at Sebring before buying mine and I really noticed it from the passenger side (less focused on driving I suppose). The car was also missing it's back seat so that could have made it worse.
It's one of the things that worried me about the car because of how incredibly annoying it was when riding in that car.

Always take out the driver's floor mat when on track and anything else that could come rolling underfoot.

Uncle Sam: tracked for 20 years and never taken out the driverside floormat...all my cars have had positive retention systems (as the Camaro). Only lower speed autocrosses seem to get in a tizzy about it. A bit odd at the requirements IMO.

Took it to the dealer today and after verifying the misfires by pulling the codes on the computer - random, high rpm, all cylinders...they deduced it was bad gas.
They wouldn't change any parts... So I'm in doubt I have a healthy car...only way to verify is to track it again. The fun of discrepancies...a bit of time and money is consumed even with warranty work. My car has a GM Performance Intake and I wonder if that contributes...the driveability is not as smooth as I would expect from a new car - rather jerky at low rpm. |

I think that the concern is if the mat came forward and hung up the pedals somehow. Yeah, I admit it would be rare. My Lotuses had mats that were literally bolted to the floor (factory) to prevent a forward sliding mat, that was positive retention. I am going to say the snaps in the Camaro, not so much.

Tim.. Bad Gas?! Not sure about that one, but here's hoping its so... you can run it out and put some good stuff in there.. Let us know how it works out.
BTW, it was great meeting you down at PBIR. Hopefully we will see eachother again at Sebring! TC

Makes for an expensive track day with the 6 hour round trip and $150 entry fee only to abort halfway thru.
You are right...will have to do another one to confirm... Nice seeing another example mixing it up! Audi is having a session at Daytona...a grand track...with a grand price ($600!). |
