Zusammenfassung:	A clearance control ring for a clearance control system of a gas turbine engine includes a contoured radial outer portion that defines a multiple of fins and a multiple of slots. A clearance control system of a gas turbine engine includes a clearance control ring with a radial inner portion from which a contoured radial outer portion extends. The contoured radial outer portion defines a multiple of fins and a multiple of slots. A blade outer air seal assembly with a clearance control ring land which receives the radial inner portion. A method of controlling a radial tip clearance within a gas turbine engine includes tailoring a multiple of fins and a multiple of slots of a clearance control ring for both steady state and transient clearance operations.
