Greetings. I just picked up a 2016 GT with PP. I have been doing TT events with the SCCA for the last two years in re-invigorated time trials program in a Scion FR-S I have about 10 TT events under my belt, along with a few HPDE events including and PDE instruction (as a student of course).
The Sport classes in SCCA TT do not permit camber adjustment beyond what is available from the factory, per my understanding. In the class I have been running, this has caused an issue of extreme edge tire wear, where a set of RE71R'S can be corded on the outer edge after two weekends of racing. I am interested in whether anyone has been racing this car in its Sport class and has had a similar experience with tire wear.
Ultimately, my question will be "what SCCA classes for autocross and TT is this car best suited for so that I can make a call as to whether and how to build it for competition." My preference is to do less modding than more, but I don't want to end up heading in the wrong direction.
Thank you
