Now if we can get Courtney from the Power Block to do commentary...Woooo Hooooo!
Truth is Camaro5 ought to do some video commentary and interviews from all the shows. That would be a bad A S S new section, I know the members here are super talented and could pull this one off easy.
I dont think anyone ever tires of highlights from carshows, races and trackdays.

Funny you mention that... For work, I do mobile Communications for Police, Fire, and EMS vehicles. One aspect of what we install are Cameras and already have streaming capability for the data to be stored on a remote server, or streamed direct to a web server...

The setup is pretty expensive though. The Cameras we interface with are High Def and are very expensive Panasonic units. (Ever watch COPS? They are the same Camera's used in the Police Cars.) The setup is probably 5K for the Camera and Communications gear. I have the Communications gear already.. I don't have the Camera. (it's $3K) We have used cheap web cams.. They don't have a very high frame rate when streaming over the cellular connection.

It would be possible for me to put streaming video in place pretty easily. Cost prohibitive though.

Here are some shots taken by the Autocross club photographer...
I found these posted on the Web at the SCCA NER club Forum.

Getting started on the build today. Did a baseline dyno and I think they are pulling the motor tomorrow. The heads are dialed in and ready to roll!

Speaking only for myself, track rash is a hard earned badge of honor.

The highly tuned/modified Autocross cars run 3 to 3.5 degrees neg camber on all 4 tires for maximum cornering grip. I have been setting my car up to be competitive for autocross.

I can get all of the other adjustments I need for the suspension with the exception of max negative camber (as related to a properly setup autocross suspension).

The Pfadt camber plates in conjunction with the stock camber adjustment will give me the settings I require in the front..

I would like to be able to get more neg. camber in the rear. Got any suggestions Pete?

The other cars running autocross with anything like your RWHP, would usually be all wheel drive. With -3 in the rear, unless you run in 5th gear , you will not be able to put any power down. The same is true up front for optimal traction. Our testing indicates that anything above -2.5 begins to lose grip in a turn and not increase it. This is due to the way the GM version of the MacStrut functions. As you put load on it the negative camber grows -- significantly.

What tires are you running for autocross?
What are your wheel offsets?
What are your current alignment specs?

If some of this is confidential competitive information send it by PM.

I think they should start over. I think I see a spec of dust on one of the valve springs. Congrats on your new LPE build.

Very cool. Go for the new market development funds -- think of the possibilities with over 100 thousand Camaro owners and don't forget all the professional racing circuits, World Rally, NASCAR, INDY... Wait a minute. I may want a piece of this new program.

That may have been a number on one of the titanium valves or dust on my phone.

How is your secret build coming along?
