I concur on the throttle being touchy from the factory :-) This (2022 SS 1LE) is a new car for me but not my first V8 car: I used to autocross a gen-4 Camaro some 10 years ago, and I have a Pontiac...

An update: I've done some running with A052 295/30 R20 all around. The fit on the front is a little tight but it fits fine, no scrubbing. The only thing I did was cut off the little rubber pips from...

For what it's worth, by now I've got some experience autocrossing with my 2022 1LE, and yes, with PTM all-off it does turn in really well on applying gas at corner exits, so it looks likely that...

Huh, thanks, that's a good advice just in time. This is supposed to be a shop specializing in racing suspensions, but I guess needs more verification too :-(

Slicks last longer on the track than street tires, they don't overheat. And also are more grippy, consistent, and fun. Just make sure to get the (harder) track compound, not the (softer) autocross...

In case if anyone else wonders, here is the answer I've got from a different shop: GM's instructions for track alignment require to drill out the holes. (Since it's factory instructions, it's fine...

My car has one of these badges, I think from the factory. "1" is reddish/pink and "LE" is black.

I went to an alignment shop, and they say that all they could get is -1.2 on on side and -1.3 on the other. They say they've disengaged the spline bolts, and also took out the bolts, had a look at...

Do you do much trail-braking into the turns? In my experience, this kind of wear, with most of wear on the outside but cording on extreme inside, tends to happen on the inside tire when braking hard...

I think your tires look fine. Not new, and with more wear on the outside (could use a little more negative camber?) but not corded yet. Not much tread to run in a serious rain but fine for a mild...

I've tried different tools over the years.


First I've tried a pressure tank bleeder, and it didn't work well at all. At best it leaves the brake fluid tank filled to the brim and a little more...

I haven't tried RE71RS myself yet, but compared to the previous RE71R and to V730, A052 were quicker on my previous car (RX-8).

Yoko A052 295/30R20 all around?

I've started looking at the street-class autocross tires for 1LE, and apparently the variety is not great, both in 19" and 20". 19" has more brands but they tend to be narrower for the fronts (275...

Thanks for the pointer!

Do the knee pads help for autox?

I wonder if getting the knee pads is of any use for autocross? Do they help with staying in place and/or not getting bruises on the sides of the knees? Or are they purely cosmetic?

And I've got a response from WishfulSS too. If he'd already sold to lawmann8, it's a strong indication of at least a stolen account.
