Looking for feedback on Camber plates, New to HPDE just came off my second event and first time at VIR and my corner speeds need help. Car is stock with an Auto Blip added after the first event. After this event, I feel I need to add camber for better grip. I am leaning to Ground Control plates as my plan for the car is a mix of Daily Driver and 4 or 5 HPDE days a year.
open to feed back and opinions on over all alignment recommendations
 
I would probably go with Vorshlag ( most expensive ) as they have the best range , but Maximum Motorsports are another choice. Getting some solid negative camber front and rear will help alot with rotation, initial turn in and better tire life. Eventually some wider wheels, some sticky tires and some other reasonable priced mods will help you increase your speed. Good luck and great car, I had a 17 solid white GT 350 and the exhaust sound of that beast is still one of my all time favorites.

Welcome also!
 
Second vote for Vorshlag. I like that they replace the factory spring perch/bearing and are very well made. I got -2.9 deg, limited by the strut tower hole diameter (didn't trim it at all). You can get almost -2 deg in the rear with the factory arms, they can be a PITA to adjust though.
 
Vorshlag is great and so is MMR camber plates. I had MMR on Stock set up before going coilovers and I have them with my coilovers now.
 
I have some MMR camber plates that I used for about 1.5 years before getting Steeda plates. Shoot me a PM if you want the MMR ones.
 
Thanks for the offer DeadlyOne and Just to update , my Vorshlag plates shipped today and should arrive by Friday. Thanks for the input. I will let you know how the install goes. Next track event planned for October 31 at VIR.
 
Another simple question the 2 piece factory lug nuts can be a pain not to mention I would like to match the black wheel anybody have any recommendations on lug nuts? Any thoughts closed end or open end.
 
I decide to order the OPR lug nuts, Installed my Vorshlag camber plates and Quick Fit harness this weekend. looks like I can get -2.4 degrees Looking forward to track day Oct 31,Nov1 at VIR IMG_5793.jpegIMG_5800.jpegIMG_7074.jpeg
