What wheels setup did you go with such that your needing spacers?

Have you done brake pads yet? Go with a full race on front(non-street) and an aggressive street pad for the back. They make a big difference when trying to push back your braking points. Supposedly your not supposed to use race pads on the street, but I'm finding them to be fine for daily...

Use Chevy truck studs. They're about 12mm longer than OEM and work great.

I'm sure somebody would trade with you to get their hands on the blue stuff.

They did the same thing in 2023 with the Track Editions. The 99 Watkins Glen cars, then the 99 Road Atlanta cars, and then the 99 Sebring cars were all built in their own batches. Production and CF was prioritized for those special edition cars. All the Le Monstre cars and Petite Pataud cars...

MassTuning has a track day event at Monticello Motorclub Sept 1st, as in 3 weeks from today - $815 It just was announced last night that this event was actually happening and registration opened. Have you ever seen a track day held there before? It would be great to see a bunch of Blackwings...

I might unlock and have the ECU tuned after my warranty expires. Not willing to give up the warranty this early on in the cars life.

Level #1 on the JB4 does nothing, you are running stock. Level #2 requires 91 octane Level #3 requires 93 octane Level #4 requires E85, or 93 octane or better. If you add the airbox lid with larger MAF tubes you'll get a Level #5 custom tune to adjust things for that extra airflow. Order a 54...

I'd like to put together a "group buy" to negotiate a better price on Forgeline wheels. Anybody else interested in them? They are what John Heinricy is using on his CT4 BW. Here's a link to the 2023 runoffs. Other than wheels, tires, brake pads and sway bars, that's a stock car.

Just as the JB4 fools the computer into making more power, the larger MAF tubes do as well. If you have both the JB4 and the airbox lid with larger MAF tubes you'll get a custom tune for the JB4 going one step farther than what it comes programed for.

Well, I didn't do it to it yet, but I've done it for it. Just ordered the Refined Performance sway bars and Swift Spec-R springs. That should increase the speed everywhere on the track and take a few seconds off lap times.

It would be nice if Cadillac came out with a Precision Package for the CT4 BW as well. Since they haven't, I'll assemble my own. I just ordered the sway bars and Swift Spec-R springs from Refined Performance. The Refined Performance springs are 30% stiffer than OEM, while the Precision...

Mount one of your 275/35's on a front wheel and test fit it. If it works then 275/35-18 can be your square setup. If they are too tall, I know 275/30-18's will fit mounted on 18x10 wheels, so that could be your square. You could also go 285/30-18 square or even 295/30-18 square on 10" wheels...

I'm hoping someone would be willing to nearly donate a damaged splitter to a racing cause. I'd like to play with it and modify it for more downforce for my track day adventures.

Resale value - correct, some buyers wouldn't care, but some buyers wouldn't buy a car without it. IMHO
