I strongly believe you should go lower not higher. For reference I was at 34 hot and kept dropping pressure brown runs. I don't roll the tires and after looking at yours you were not rolling them either. Next time try 32 cold.

yes and I appreciate your input but eagles will react different from trofeos and you did consistantly better than me so who knows?

After reading mcrat and lehman on this thread too http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=362443 it seems to make sense...a pyromter might be a better tool...I ended up staggered 37 and 35 starting at 32 I think...overall I came in with very high expectations and came out with my tail between my legs if you know what I mean.

forgot to mention I use stock alignment.

They listed it as A Street (AS), which requires treadwear 140+ (2014 races), and 200+ for 2015 races. The factory tires will be illegal for AS.
And I think they should have initially listed it as FS, where the 1LE cars run. After 400HP, there isn't a big advantage to more HP, and the weights are the same.
The fact they put the ZL1 Camaro in AS still puzzles me. Size and weight are no advantage. A 1LE should be faster at AutoX than a ZL1, but they allow the 1LE to run with the 6-cyl Camaros. Odd.
AS has the C5 Z06's in it, which are popular, light and fast. On a tight course, the Z/28 is probably not going to hang with 3080lb "405HP" vette. It's suspension is very adjustable, and it's very well balanced with an uber low CG.

OE (Factory tires) are legal for Street eligible cars in Regional Solo events, (but not Nationals.) Section 13.3.C, Solo rules for 2014.
Thus for Z/28s, they can run in Regional events in AS with the Trofeos. Be tough at Nationals. No 140 or 200 TW tires in the right sizes (BIG).

.
Definitely agree Z/28 will have it tough in AS against Z06s.

WOW!!!

Thanks! You just saved me a bunch of money. A Bunch.

I was going to drop to 18" CCW's and run BF Goodrich Rivals (200 treadwear + built in camber) 315/30-18's. $4000 worth of dancing shoes. ARGHHH!!

IOU!
