Message	- Study the track so you know what it looks like - Freshly-bled brakes - Retorque wheels after every session - PCV blow-by is normal, so you'll see some smoke after hard turns - Make sure your tires aren't abnormally worn - Don't try to be a hero on your first session. Drive a few laps to familiarize yourself with where the flag stands are located, any debris or oddity on the track, etc. Have fun! SS Originally Posted by solidfish on my350z.com: "Hey Scott. Thanks for the ride by the way. Your car and driving is sick. Literally, I was sick. It was like riding a mad rollercoaster. The car turns like its on rails. And the braking was unreal. So many times I thought we were going to fly off the track. Absolutely nuts, but it was great fun."
