Nice job Andrew! It will be interesting to watch Phoenix Racing's C8 build. I know you'll bring out the beast in the C8 Z51.

For anybody who doesn’t know his 124 and making it look like a Sunday drive is not what you would have done so smooth Andrew

[@ajaquilante1]

Thank you.

Hey Andrew, what pressures do you like with the A7? I'm thinking about running those for my last few events at Thunderbolt this season.

[@dannyli9688]

Amazing driving ! What do you estimate the lap time would be with 4S tires and factory recommended track alignment at this track and lightning?

[@ajaquilante1]

On a C7 Z06 the PSS vs A7 with same alignment was about 3 seconds at Thunderbolt. I'd guess the car would run high 26/27's which, which lines up with it doing 2:00's at VIR.

It seems to be very tail happy on apex turn 3 (right sweeper) and track out turn 5 (hairpin left)?

[@ajaquilante1]

Setup needs some tweaking. It was our first shot at it, and it wasn't too bad.

[@rleader1]

Great driving as always Andrew. That's some baseline #! What size were the Hoosiers?

[@ajaquilante1]

295 F 325 R

[@crustygymshorts]

Do you think it is better on track than the C7?

[@ajaquilante1]

Depends on version. I'd say it falls between a C7 GS and C7 Z51. Need to work on the alignment a bit more and see what that gets us.

[@italian_stang]

Any understeer?

[@ajaquilante1]

No, but I didn't follow GM's recommendations.

@@ajaquilante1 Hi Andrew, any update to your C8 experience since this was uploaded, and since you didn't follow GM alignment what did you use?
