Honestly - there are two things at play here, driver and car improvement/upgrade. He's already reached out to have two coaches sit in the right seat, so he has the driver part covered IMHO. Considering Maytag is apparently driving at a high level, we all know his stock car is going to suffer. While I fully agree that it's always better to work on the driver with a stock car, adding a good set of coilovers and allowing for more camber and getting a proper alignment is going to be easier on his tires, not that significant of a modification and will improve his street experience and track experience.
Also - to me it's not always about lap times and comparisons. While I track my lap times, I'm out there to have fun and just enjoy the car. I also never drive the car at more than say 8/10's at any time. So my laps times suffer a bit compared to the guys who are winning in the class my Boxster would be.
