Thanks guys! I was able to get the alignment done today, but then some bad weather moved in and I wasn't able to actually get out and drive other than to/from the alignment shop. I can say that in just that short drive, the car felt incredible compared to before and I can't wait to go do some driving. :unibrow: I'm hoping to get it out tomorrow night if this weather clears up.

Gaetano, Some autocrossing/track time is what I'm shooting for hopefully here in the near future. :unibrow:
Things are a little crazy right now though, we are in the process of selling our house and trying to relocate back to the midwest after being in Nashville for 12 years.

I was just curious Corey. If it is your daily driver keep it that way. I dont recommend anybody thrash on their daily drivers.

Hope all goes well with the move :thumbsup:

I'm with ya man, my Camaro is definitely not a daily driver. Sometimes I think I don't drive it as much as I'd like too. I mentioned to my wife few months back about doing some autocrossing and I think she was thinking you put alot of work into the car. I am definitely wanting to get on a course and really push the car. Goodguys-Nashville actually let any year into the show on the last day of the show this year, but we had family in town, so I couldn't get out there on that Sunday. It's really itchin at me now every time I see you guys posting about track days. :D
Thanks for the well wishes, we are just trying to get closer to family and our son is a year away from starting kindergarten. But hey, if you want a nice two-story, 2-car garage house in Nashville, let me know. ;)

I took the Camaro out tonight and I am completely STOKED with the results of installing the J & M camber/caster plates! I noticed that it now handles better and the steering response is night and day difference. I also noticed that the braking is a lot more firmer. Before installing the new pieces, there was a little bit of play or almost loose feel especially at higher speeds...that is no longer there. I think I may have finally completed the suspension puzzle...at least for now. :D
I was having so much fun in the Camaro tonight, I wasn't ready to come back to the house. :lol:

Hitting the curvy roads were great. After things get settled down this year, hopefully I can hit some autocross events in due time. It's time to add some horsepower now. :unibrow:

Sounds like you're having some fun with that 3rd gen now Corey. That's awesome.
