Default Track advice

I posted a few months ago after my last track time at COTA and listed at least things that needed changing. Since then, have made some big changes and will drive the car next weekend at TWS. I have a 2013 NISMO. Upgraded to a South Bend Stage 2 clutch with stainless steel CSC (have had two clutch pedal sticking to the floor incidents), lightweight flywheel, added CFS triple flow radiator , 33 row setrab oil cooler (again, several 260 deg episodes on track,
Went with Carbotechs xp10s/xp8s, Castrol SRF (probably overkill here), had a 4 point bar installed, Safecraft 6 point harnesses, Sparco Evo II seats. I had the bar seats, harnesses, pads, radiator and oil cooler all done by Winding Road Racing in Austin. I highly recommend Juliann and Alex.....they were incredible.

They were working on 2 other 350s. Hope to see those cars at TWS. Will let everyone know how the upgrades work out. Still know to keep the tank full. Experienced fuel starvation there.
