Improving your driving skill as your number one mod is the best start to any track success. Definitely do the suspension related items ( serious track pads, DOT 4 Brake fluid , Vorshlag camber plate for some negative camber, track alignment , stickier tires, second set of square rims ) before being concerned with power adders. Most drivers spend more time working on go fast goodies instead of slow fast goodies and advancing cornering capabilities. With Sebring and Palm Beach International Raceway just South of you and Daytona to the East, you definitely have some fun tracks to use that 8250 redline. Welcome and good to see your Build Thread and nice thing is one can add to it as you go.
