Are you tempted to go to the track anytime soon ?

Oh yes!! :D Is just that I recently moved from U.S. and I'm looking for a job right now but if everything is ok I want to do at least one track day this year. I was thinking at the one at Bowmanville organized by SVTOA on 31 August. Thing is since I've never been on the track I would like to have an instructor the first time and they offer one at this event since is HPDE.
The SVT is a great car and I would like to "savor it" in it's stock form until my driving abilities are increasing. This way I'll know what to change.
Suspension wise KW Variant (1-2-3) is a very good choice. If money is tight Koni yellows with stock springs or HR Race is another good option. Again, I'm speaking from what I've read (too much free time :)
How's the power steering pump holding up for you? I know most people that go on track at the very least upgrade the fluid to Redline since the stock one is foaming and causes pump failure. I changed mine 2 months ago and it was black and it's supposed to be red :lol: Also, are you running the stock brake fluid?
Sorry to derail your thread..
