Another day another race car alignment here in the shop, another long travel front suspension alignment with a bump steer kit. If anyone had ANY doubt what the future of racing looks like, it's with the nose of the car 6 to 7 inches up running down the track on tippy toes! But when you're running on your toes you've got to get it right, so let's get this thing set up!
Custom suspension / Custom Alignment work is the same thing as a standard alignment, just totally different because you don't get the cheat sheet on the screen telling you exactly what to do, and what numbers to hit. These types of jobs take time and attention to detail to get right, something most shops either won't or can't do. In the same time we spend getting one of these cars set up a "normal" shop could be knocking out a brake job and making considerably more money. But we don't do this for the money, we do this because we love it, and because we want to make sure each and every racer around us is as safe and properly set up as possible.
With this 3rd Gen Camaro we are starting with a VERY well built machine that just needs some finishing touches and tweaks. With the long travel front shocks, tubular front end, and bump steer kit we can dial in just about exactly what we want to see. There's never a set process for this stuff, it's never the same exact answer twice, every build has it's differences. But in the end, it's another job complete, another race car drastically improved and safer.
We look forward to the feedback once he gets out and makes some passes to see how the changes work for him! Remember guys, the fastest point between the starting line and the finish line, is a straight line!
