Corvette Z06 GT3.R · Nordschleife: from 8:01 to 7:58 — one clean step at a time
Lower the car, add a click of wing, fix one bump-stop event at Wippermann — three changes, roughly three seconds.

The one thing to watch
The only catch is on corner exit, once tyre grip drops off over a race run: the Camaro wants a slightly more careful throttle hand. That's more of a driving-style point than a setup issue – smooth throttle application keeps the rear well in check.
The setup
For this first pass I set the car up the way I know from the other GT4 cars on the Nordschleife: a balanced base setup that lets the Camaro keep its natural stability rather than diluting it with over-aggressive changes. As with every GT4, the fast damper stages are locked – all the work happens on the slow stages.
Lap time
Starting from 8:42.846, the time came down to 8:39.379 – a solid first step for a car that's still right at the beginning of its development with us.
