Go slowly. Listen to your instructor. LEARN.


Once you get a good feel for the car and become more confident in your abilities you can start evaluating what you would like to do with the car to make it better.
This pretty much sums it up. It's probably surprising to hear someone that makes a living selling parts and services for the 370Z, to say this but it's the absolute truth. The speed will come with experience and training and then we'll of course be ready to sell you all kinds of neat parts. But initially, all that one really needs is a good set of brake pads, brake lines, fluids, and an oil cooler.

Before investing in more equipment, you need to get to the point that your tires are squealing like angry witches pretty much ALL the time you are cornering. Only when you hear the angry witches will you know it's time for better wheels, tires, suspension, and so on.

Let us know if we can help. We are on track somewhere at least once a month in the South East and Mid Atlantic regions.
