Thanks to @emprovost986 for this incredible 2:13.8 reference lap that helped me prep for this track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRcXdiaX_e4

Not bad for my first time (second day) at NCM although I was overdriving, missed some apexes, and overslowed before turn 1. I think the tire temperatures were also probably a little lower than optimal although the pressures were about right with the max during this lap being 34-35psi. I had a few partial 2:17 laps later in the day but never managed to fully complete one. After this event I realized that my rear toe link bushings were worn probably contributing to the tail-happy behavior of the car (eccentric bolts didn't loosen during this event) and the car now oversteers less since I had SPL Camaro Rear Toe Links + Eccentric Lockout installed to replace them.

Sunday 4/23/2023 Chin HPDE first morning session at 9:40am. The ambient temperature was ideal at around 49°F.

National Corvette Museum (NCM) - 3.15 mile Grand Full Course

NCM is a great challenging track! 

2017 Camaro SS 1LE. Unmodified engine using PTM Race, stock Goodyear Supercar 3 (220 treadwear) tires, track alignment (camber: -2.2° front, -1.8° rear, toe: +0.05° front on each side, some toe in for the rears), BMR BK063 Rear Diff Cradle Bushing Lockout Kit, FEA front lower front control arms from ZL1 1LE (since stock fluid filled bushings leaked), 2021 SS 1LE ABS control module (EBCM) to get better ice mode calibration (found on 2019+ SS 1LEs) which prevents intermittent hard brake pedal and reduced stopping force in bumpy braking zones, Castrol SRF DOT 4 brake fluid, stock Brembo (Ferodo HP1000/1) brake pads, GM plastic track brake cooling deflectors, smaller GM metal brake dust / splash shields. The car is in track mode with touring steering mode and track exhaust mode. Ambient temperature was about 49°F...great for fast laps!
