I don't do GM, or any other dealer for that fact, for an alignment. When I got my '21 Z51, they did the GM race alignment (-3.0/-2.5 camber) and the first track day the right rear wheel dog-legged....

Yes, you are correct on the 2000. I'm only relaying what they said to me. Personally I think they quoted wrong and that it will go 3000 this week, but this is also the last cycle for 2024, is it not?...

My timing was spot on to ask on Saturday. The other two that they submitted last week already have the TPW. They had just enough time to pull mine back if I was serious, and clearly I was.

Same here. Hoping to have my Z06 next September, but I won't be autocrossing it like I do my '21 Z51. Adding another 3.6" to the width is a MAJOR issue in autocross. Hell, my C8 is as wide as my...

I ran the Spring Mountain autox course in manual mode too. That course is WAY too tight for D. That course is NOT representative of a normal autocross course.
