factory camber setting is basically at zero or slightly positive - no joke! With more aggressive camber alignment and change out at least the tranny mounts the vette will be very stable car ... and very very fast if you are given the chance to drive it hard after we surgically shorten your right humerus

Joe,
Watching your videos, it is evident you really know your way around Thill’s 2.86 miles of asphalt (soon to be five miles).
I also prefer the ADHD version (v.2) because of two factors: first, one can clearly see the track without the cockpit obstructions and second, one can watch your feet.
Great video montage with the multiple views and data overlays!

Haha, thanks, Dave. I like the ADHD version too. Gonna stick with that from now on! Yeah, I think I know where the 2 seconds are too. Knowing where the 2 seconds are and actually doing it are 2 different things, unfortunately.
