So…I’m getting ready for a weekend at VIR. This time, I wanted to follow the 4BW owners manual and perform a track alignment. The owners manual direct you to punch some pins on the strut tower to achieve max camber ( see attached pic). To my surprise this procedure doesn’t really do anything. Last season, I just loosened the 2 bolts on the wheel assembly ( similar procedure to the Camaro) and got -2.4.
Looks like you must do the same on top of the owners manual instructions.
Does anybody have access to a service manual?
Did anybody get better success?
Thanks

I gave it a try last year. Was not able to punch out the top alignment pins. After numerous progressively harder strikes with a hammer and punch, I ended up drilling the pins out of the way. This allowed the strut to move at most 1/8” inboard. It may have given me .5 deg. Never put it on an alignment rack to get specific readings afterwards. I will leave the lower strut bolts in the track alignment position for the whole summer and only adjust the strut tops for track days as it’s easily accessible
