So what would you do for prepping the car next time? You mentioned clutch fluid, how did the brake pads hold up and brake fluid?

Sold ....I like the deep growl with the ART pipes. And the final whack of the throttle was awesome. Any drone?
Depends on your event. Anything with 20-25 minute session with adequate cool down periods should be fine. For your first event, I'd go with the car stock to get a feel for it. I wasn't hard on the brakes at all, I was concentrating more on hitting lines and being smooth, rather than being fast.

There is a lot of interior noise with this setup (mostly due to the lack of sound deadening from factory), but no drone at 65-75mph at cruising throttle. 60mph with 15 to 20% throttle, there is some slight drone, but I hardly drive 60.

Thanks, I'll try to. I think the exhaust is perfect volume. My 18" resonated with stock cats sounded good inside, but pretty tame outside. This opens up the sound so well. Nothing but compliments with the ART pipes added on.
