Espetacular!!!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@Racer_Mike87]

Congrats on 3rd place! Great driving

[@SpyderRacing]

Thank you!

[@danielpyziak6537]

Nice driving! Could you do a walk around video of your car showing your setup? Thanks!

[@SpyderRacing]

Sure I can do that sometime, I try to list all my changes in the description.

[@mansooruddinahmed128]

Thanks for the video, will be taking my camaro to WG in a few weeks for the first time. Do they penalize your time for going off track on turn one or is that an accepted line?

[@SpyderRacing]

@mansooruddinahmed128 the track itself doesn't care. It depends what event you're going to and what rules they want to enforce. Some organizations would delete your lap for that, some won't.

[@adamheadland5033]

Oil on the track in the opening sequence?

[@SpyderRacing]

No oil, just went into the corner too hot for what the tires could do.

[@mansooruddinahmed128]

What is your mic set up to not have wind and such crisp engine volume

[@SpyderRacing]

I have a microphone recording near the license plate. It's a "countryman B3 mic"

[@mixworks-de]

Good driving - you were taking risks...using all the track :) And what a torquey engine...who needs more power in his Camaro on the racetrack??

[@SpyderRacing]

More power always helps but this car is well balanced. Some people do E85, headers and that will get you about 60 WHP, might be an option in the future.

[@BrzBoyz831]

E85 tune alone will give you more than 60 whp

[@SpyderRacing]

@@BrzBoyz831 probably, I'm thinking about it

[@mixworks-de]

I see you were running slick tires...but the car has no full cage?

[@SpyderRacing]

That's right, no full cage necessary for time trial NASA with slick tires. Just a 4 point cage with seat + 6 point harness. But according to the rules you could technically run a stock seatbelt and seat while running slicks... not recommended.

[@Mechanical_Eng_HPDE]

Insane lap! did you ever run the car 100% stock at WGI? what lap times did you run?

[@SpyderRacing]

I did but it was wet so I'm not sure what it would run. The car can go a lot faster here and I plan on trying again this year. I was running really old R7's here and had not been introduced to A7's yet. If I had to guess I think the car can do 2:03's here on stock tires (just basing off how bad the R7's were and what I was able to do at VIR stock). I think with new A7's the car can go sub 2:00 just like VIR (that's the goal anyways).

[@Mechanical_Eng_HPDE]

@@SpyderRacing Wow, a 100% stock SS1LE running a 2:03 sounds crazy fast, now I have a goal!

[@ASREnthusiast]

"Track limits?"

[@SpyderRacing]

Samir you're breaking the car
