I did around 25 track days before I improved my original Boxster beyond better brake pads and performance tires. You'll know when you are better than the car and when the car is what is holding back your performance. THEN upgrade the car.[/QUOTE]

Thstone, Topless, Rattan and Racer Boy,
Thank you for your advice. I think i'll save save some money to devote to lessons instead of parts. I hope I can get to the point where I can recognize that the car is holding me back. (Or that this old man lives that long )

One question, where is a good place to look for an instructor for AX? I reside in eastern PA.[/QUOTE]

Looks like you are in PCA Zone 2. Find an active AX region near you and contact their CDI. Let him know you are interested in improving your AX skills and would like to work with a qualified instructor. He will direct you from there.
