I agree with Ricky on maximizing what you have now and gaining seat time to boost your skill first before changing parts on the car to be competitive. For example, I thought I was maxing out the tires on my S2000 and then Ricky drives it and knocks 1.5 seconds off my time; very humbling run that was, 2 years ago. It took me about 2 years before I finally upgraded my stock suspension to something competitive and in that time I had gotten my times to within 1 second of the top local STR guys. It's going to be a challenge for them this year.

My runs from this past Sunday...
