Okay, super helpful. I'll place an order now and see if that helps. I'm thinking for pads to go with Hawk Performance HPS 5.0 pads ... but honestly since I just drive to track events I'd be okay with a more aggressive (though dusty and squeaky) pad if there's a better recommendation.

My AG1LE plate translates to: Silver 1LE Also, my state of Nevada is known as the Silver State, so kind of cool for here.

New shoes are in... thought I would put them on a scale for be all end all full weight measurement.
Front: 51.5 lbs Rear: 55 lbs **EDIT** I haven't measured my OEMs but have read w/ tire fronts are about 60lbs and rears are about 64lbs. So let's call it a 10lbs reduction which is very noticeable when I go to grab second gear and lay down a strip of rubber for 50 feet lol. Last edited by kcandiotti400; 08-30-2020 at 11:31 PM. |

Detroit Speed rear stabilizer has arrived. 12.5 lbs according to my scale. There's an autocross event tomorrow so I'm going to see if I can get there early and switch the bars out in the paddock.

congrats on the purchase. if you haven't already, buy some Sonax Alcantara cleaner to revive that steering wheel.

Where did you get your APEX wheels? I have been looking to get a pair of 17" APEX rears to put drag radials on.

Apex doesn't sell 17's for the Camaro. You might look at Weld, Forgestar, Racestar, etc. for drag wheel setups.

Incredible. My wheel looks exactly like his "before" comparison. I've been thinking about getting driving gloves but will that trash the wheel faster or protect it from my grubby mitts?
Also, I like the Strats photo! I'm from Cicero, IL and whenever I'm back in town I hit that joint up. |

and small world! People are still meeting up at Strats on the weekends but sounds like the city of Villa Park is giving Strat grief for all the dumb people who rip down north ave, so who knows how much longer that will be working out. good luck with the car & refreshing the wheel
