Im hoping this is the right forum, i figure id get more help here then from the road racing forum..

just wondering some musts if i wanted to track ready my S?..

kind of a n00b at starting a thread, keep the flaming to a minimun..

thanks for any input!

 

What type of racing do you want to do?

 

you don't have to do much, our cars are very good out of the box. just the general stuff:

-good tires
-fluids updated and full
-if using oem pads, have a new set. at some tracks, you can kill those pads in one day. you can use Cobalt Gt-Sports as they are very good for track/daily driving. I use these for daily driving
-helmet
-some tracks require roll bars while some do not, check with your local tracks on this

hope that helps

Bell M2 is what I have. I wanted the Pro but it gets pricey. I also have the Sparco Fast Tech gloves. i got both from there. They have sizing charts to help you figure that out

I went around the track in Nishant 's S as a passenger a few time's at Beaver Falls. He freaking sick. :lol: He hit speeds in some turns that I couldnt reach in straight aways.

Thanks Jackson! only sad part, i am stock. you are supercharged

 

Reasons why you were faster: um the sun was in my eyes, I had a fat instructor in my S, the wind picked up everytime I was out there, I didnt want to lose my oil filter in turn 4, or your just a much better driver. You decide.

BTW seems I suck at launching to.

 

thanks for the replys..

most appreciative!

I think this is the only thread that has actually covered the topic

Is this a thread or a chatroom

of course, this pretty much covers everything anyway


Only thing I would *** would be,

If you have some money

-Upgrade suspension
-Driving school

even with $$$, i say drive stock suspension for awhile and see what you need. most improvements are done by the driver, not by the car
