Back to the 6th Gen Control Arms

Took the car to Cresson, 3.1 mile course this weekend. Thiw was the first time since swapping control arms I got to run the car on the 285 square setup. I've been dailying the car for 5 months, so I am used to the "return to center" feel and no longer notice it. The car felt sure and nimble, I did cord the inner edge of the driver's side front and rear tires. The rear was not too surprising (tire was DONE) but I did not expect the front...........although there are two high speed left handers. Ricochet and Big Bend. I'll dial back the camber ~ 0.5 degrees on the driver's side next time out.
Outside wear on the front tires did not seem as severe as what I'm used to run, TWS (RIP). I'd like to attribute it to the caster allowing more camber as you turn. I'm new to Cresson and freely accept that this is an apples to oranges comparison.

Just my 2 cents (oh yeah, my son ran his '16 ATS-V & we had a blast)
