The track day at Pueblo was absolutely fantastic; there were only 9 or 10 cars there all day so it was practically like having a private event. I beat up on a 600hp supercharged Camaro 1LE, a 328i track car and a 400hp TPC turbo'd Cayman, and got to pass a 2019 Z06 that someone just bought


I've since added a P&L Motorsports catted equal length header with ceramic coating and am trying to plan for what modifications to complete for next season. Unfortunately, I wiped out my tires at the last event because I didn't have enough negative camber up front, so front camber is a must; I'm looking at Verus Engineering camber plates to handle that duty. I also broke a couple wheel studs up front (too much heat I'm guessing) so ARP studs will be coming along with chromoly lug nuts. Oil cooler is also a must as my temps were getting too high, forcing me to take cool-down laps and take breaks over the course of the 8hr day. Beyond that, a 2.5" overpipe, intake and E85 conversion/tune will round out the power mods for the car and I may opt for a set of Enkei RPF1's to reduce unsprung weight and allow me to carry two sets of tires to the track. Might get some RCE yellow springs to lower ride height though that's more for aesthetics than anything.


Depending on how next year goes, I may decide to upgrade some more things the following year, or may part company with the car if I can find the right Alfa 4C or 997.2 911. We shall see!
