Yes, let's re-review the process...

First, you need to know how good a track driver you really are and the only way to know that is to compare lap times with others in similar cars.

The golden rule is not to modify the car until you can consistently drive at or near the times that the best drivers with similar cars are posting.

This might mean going back and looking up the best times that were posted in the past for your class at the tracks that you visit.

Are you that fast?

If so, then excuse the interruption and carry on! If not, then think about putting the car improvement money into more track time and toward paid professional instruction.
