Good point Ross! I should add my car is a road car, with occasional track "days" planned. It has good brakes, PBR twin pots with 13" rotors, etc. but it does not have a dry sump motor and uses standard AVO shocks. These are standard RF parts so I haven't upgraded these. Fine for road use and a few track days but it isn't going to cut it for a track car. Additionally, I'm using the Audi/Getrag tranny which saves a bunch of money upfront, but I might like to switch to a Porsche unit after I see Lynn's in action.
