Ok, so if all goes well I'll have my car on track next month at VIR. I'm gonna be installing a Porsche Brake setup and maybe fabbing up some brake ducts. My question is, since my car has around 83k miles on it, should I go ahead and replace the hubs while I'm at it? My car will be mostly street, but I hope to start tracking the car more frequently. I want to make sure everything is in order (and safe) before it sees the abuse of some track events. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for all the info guys! This site is awesome! I'll give them a good inspection this weekend, maybe the street miles have sort of seasoned them and I'll get a little more life out of them. Now I just gotta get off my a$$ and work on the car so it'll be done by VIR. I'm hoping to get some driving under my belt this year, and maybe find a good fixer upper for a track only car in the future!
